President Lyndon B. Johnson speaking at ceremonies dedicating the
Museum of History and Technology.
Buildings
Museum of History and Technology
On October 25, 1963, the General Services Administration advised
the contractor that all remaining areas and systems of the Museum of
History and Technology not previously accepted were, with certain
exceptions, accepted effective August 30, 1963.
On January 22, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson dedicated the
building at ceremonies attended by Ambassadors, Ministers, Members
of the Supreme Court, Members of the Senate, Members of the House
of Representatives, other high ranking officials and important donors
and other friends of the Smithsonian Institution.
After introductory remarks by Leonard Carmichael, Secretary of
the Smithsonian Institution, the audience was addressed, in the
order of events, by Chancellor of the Smithsonian Institution Earl
Warren, Chief Justice of the United States; by Senator Clinton P.
Anderson, United States Senator from New Mexico, Regent of the
Smithsonian Institution and Chairman of the Joint Congressional
Committee on Construction of a Building for a Museum of History

conducting.
After the ceremonies the guests viewed the exlibits in ten halls
installed for the opening.
The building was opened to the public at 9:00 a.m., January 23,
1964.
On the first Sunday after the opening more than 57,000 persons
visited the building, causing traflic jams of substantial size. By June
30, 1964, a total of 2,510,672 persons had visited the building.
The opening of the building and its initial exhibits has focused the
attention of historians, museum professionals, scholars, writers and
many others on the scholarly competence of the curators and upon the
unportance of the Smithsonian collections in recording and interpret-
ing history and traditions. Interviews have been taped, and the build-
ing and its exhibits have been filmed for world-wide distribution by
the USIA and the Voice of America. Unprecedented requests have
been received from universities for joint programs in American
studies, and the history of science and technology. Architects and
museum directors from all sections of the United States and the world
have visited the Museum to inspect the building, to examine the pro-
grams and collections, and to obtain advice on the establishment, con-
struction, and improvement of museums.
Museum of Natural History
The contract for construction of the west wing of the natural history
building, including the last stage of renovation of the original build-
ing, was signed in August 1963 and excavation for the wing was
begun in November. The foundations were laid and the superstruc-
ture erected at a rapid rate, and by the end of the fiscal year most
of the granite facing was in place. Meanwhile, renovation of the
original building was commenced.
Funds Allotted
From the funds appropriated by the Congress to carry on the opera-
tions of the Smithsonian Institution and its bureaus during the fiscal
year 1964, the sum of $5,587,000 was obligated by the United States
National Museum for the preservation, increase, and study of the
national collections of anthropological, zoological, botanical, and geo-
logical materials, as well as materials illustrative of engineering,
technology, industry, graphic arts, and history. (This amount in-
cludes sums expended for the program of exhibits modernization.)

Exhibits
A significant milestone in the history of the exhibits program at the
Smithsonian Institution was passed when exhibition halls on the first
and second floors of the Museum of History and Technology were
presented to the public on January 23, 1964. Totaling more than
75,000 square feet of instructive displays, these areas include the fol-
lowing halls or portions thereof :
Flag Hall Light Machinery
First Ladies Tools
Everyday Life in the American Past Vehicles
American Costume Railroads
Farm Machinery Heavy Machinery (part)
Also placed on display were the Greenough statue of George Wash-
ington, flanked by eight cases of outstanding national treasures; a
centrally located Foucault pendulum; and a preview of future ex-

hibits, in which are presented examples of displays to be placed in
halls to be opened in the future. The halls and exhibits on view
at the opening had required less than eight months to install, and the
building was opened to the public in less than five months after its
substantial completion by the contractor. This achievement was the
result of nearly eight years of advanced planning and design of ex-
hibition halls, followed by the production of innumerable individual
displays, some of which had been temporarily exhibited in the Arts
and Industries building prior to being moved to the new museum. It
could not have been accomplished without the cooperation of many
individuals on the curatorial staff, in the office of exhibits and the
buildings management division, and in the employ of private con-
tractors—including subject matter specialists who planned and tech-
nically supervised development of the displays; specialists in exhibits
design, production, and installation; as well as model makers, plastics
technicians, painters, electricians, and laborers. Among those in charge
of this operation, and presently engaged in the task of installing the re-
maining halls of the museum are assistant director John C. Ewers, who
coordinates the varied exhibits activities of this museum with the able
assistance of John N. Edy in planning the physical movement of
materials; Benjamin W. Lawless, who supervises the design, produc-
tion, and installation of exhibits, aided by Robert Widder in design,
Bela S. Bory and Wilham Clark in production, Robert Klinger in
the model shop, Stanley Santoroski in supervision of installation, and
Carroll Lusk as lighting specialist; George Weiner, who edits the
curators’ drafts of exhibits scripts, with the assistance of Constance
Minkin and Edna Wright. The timely assistance of buildings man-
ager Andrew F. Michaels and his staff, of John E. Cudd, laison
architect, and of George Watson, skilled specialist in the renovation
and installation of period interiors, contributed substantially to the
success of this program.
Since the opening of the new museum the installation of additional
halls has progressed. The hall of historic Americans was opened
to the public in June, and five other halls will be installed and opened
during the four months following June 30, 1964.
John E. Anglim, exhibits chief, continued in charge of the planning
and preparation of all exhibits, and, with the assistance of Gilbert
Wright, directly supervised the operation of the exhibits laboratory in
the Museum of Natural Mistory. Julius Tretick supervised the pro-
duction and installation of exhibits in that museum. Substantial por-
tions of the halls dealing with cultures of Asia and Africa and with
comparative osteology were opened to the public in June, and progress
was made on five other halls in that Museum.
EXHIBITS let
Director T. Dale Stewart continued to serve as chairman of the
committee coordinating the exhibits modernization program in natural
history, and assistant director Richard S. Cowan coordinated the work
of curators and exhibits personnel in the development of natural his-
tory exhibits. To the advancement of this work substantial contribu-
tions were made by John H. Morrissey, project review chief, archi-
tectural branch of the Public Buildings Service, General Services Ad-
ministration, and by Joseph F. Cromwell, Jr., Mrs. Gertrude Hein,
and Albert Brigeda, design architects of that agency.
Anthropology
Colorful new exhibits of objects from the Near East, Japan, Korea,
China, and North and West Africa were first placed on public view
when the west portion of the hall of cultures of Africa and Asia
was informally opened in late June. Among the exhibits interpreting
the traditional cultures of the Asian peoples are a life-size group
portraying an episode from a Chinese opera, with accompanying push-
button sound recording, a display of objects illustrating the evolution
of farming in Japan, and a unit on the daily and religious life in Tibet.
The Republic of Korea has loaned one of its national art treasures,
a cast-iron figure of Buddha from the Koryo dynasty (A.D. 935-1392),
which is presented in a temple setting with a paneled screen of red silk
brocade. North and West African cultures present many striking
works of art from peoples whose accomplishments have had a profound
influence upon modern art in Europe and America. One of the most
dramatic displays is a diorama portraying the smelting of iron ore in
primitive furnaces and the fashioning of iron tools by tribesmen from
the Mandara Mountain region of northern Cameroon. This group
was created by exhibits specialists John Weaver, Robert Caftrey, and
Peter De Anna. The exhibits in this hall were planned and specified by
associate curators of ethnology Gordon D. Gibson and Eugene I. Knez.
The hall design was the work of exhibits designer Dorothy Guthrie
and the graphic design of individual units was the work of exhibits
designer Lucius Lomax.
The completely renovated life-size group portraying Indian quarry-
ing operations and making of stone artifacts at the Piney Branch site
within the present boundaries of the District of Columbia some 500
years ago was opened to the public in the hall of North American
archeology, and another group illustrating Indian copper mining in
present Michigan was nearing completion at year’s end. Contract
construction in the new hall of Old World archeology was virtually
completed at year’s end. This hall was designed by exhibits designer
12 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
Rolland O. Hower under the scientific supervision of associate curator
Gus Van Beek.
The contractor’s work in the new hall of physical anthropology also
was nearing completion at the end of June. About half of the exhibit
units for this hall have been designed by exhibits designer Joseph
Shannon, who also served as architectural designer for the hall. The
contents of the exhibits have been specified by T. Dale Stewart, di-
rector of the Museum of Natural History and Lawrence Angel,
curator-in-charge of the division of physical anthropology.
During the spring of 1964, Dr. Knez supervised the installation of
41 outstanding examples of Chinese, Buddhist, and Hindu stone sculp-
ture, bronze and other items from China, India, Cambodia, and Java.
Dr. Van Beek worked with the Department of State and the Snuth-
sonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service on arrangements for
loan of the Dead Sea Scrolls and associated materials from the govern-
ment of Jordan. In May, during his overseas detail, he conferred with
officials of the Jordanian government, the U.S. Embassy, and the
Palestine Archaeological Museum, and selected specimens and photo-
eraphs for use in the exhibition, which is scheduled to be opened in the
Museum of Natural History in March 1965. Thereafter it will cireu-
late for six months among other museums in the United States by the
Traveling Exhibition Service.
Zoology
At the end of June the exhibits in the east half of the hall of
osteology, comprising the sections on mammals and birds, were in-
formally opened to the public. The skeletons in this exhibition
range in size from one of the gray whale to those of small birds.
Skeletal materials are supplemented by graphic portrayals of the ap-
pearance in the flesh of the particular examples displayed. One in-
teresting display compares the skeleton of man with those of other
primates. Another points out the bony structures, differences in which
serve as the bases for scientific classification of birds. ‘The sections of
this hall devoted to reptiles, amphibians, and fishes are in process of
preparation and installation. Planning of the exhibits in this hall
has been coordinated by curator David H. Johnson, with the cooper-
ation of the staff members of all the vertebrate divisions of this de-
partment. Hall design was by Anthony DiStefano and Rolland O.
Hower, and graphic design by exhibits designer Morris M. Pearson.
On February 19, 1964, a temporary exhibition entitled “Return to
the Sea” was opened on the mezzanine of the hall of life in the sea.
This display, a joint effort of the Interagency Committee on Ocean-
ography of the Government and the Smithsonian Institution, has as
—
EXHIBITS ie
its theme the renewal of interest in oceanography and the marine en-
vironment. Associate curator Charles Cutress and Mr. Kjell Sandved
spent approximately two months in Honolulu, Hawan, Dillon Beach,
Calif., and at Friday Harbor, Wash., obtaining photographs and well-
preserved specimens of animals of which models will be made for
display in additional permanent exhibits in this hall.
Preparation of models and the securing of specimens for the hall
of cold-blooded vertebrates (fishes, amphibians, and reptiles) was con-
tinued during the year, and the installation of groups in this hall was
begun. Curator Leonard P. Schultz who is coordinating the planning
of exhibits for this hall, and Alfred Strohlein spent several days in the
vicinity of Seattle, Wash., during October collecting red salmon and
background materials for the group on salmon spawning. Exhibits
designer Barbara Craig prepared the architectural layout for this hall,
and graphic design is by Joseph Shannon.
Staff members of the department cooperated with the department of
paleobiology, the Oceanographic Sorting Center, the National Zoologi-
eal Park, and the Canal Zone Biological Area in preparing a special
exhibition for presentation in the foyer of the Natural History Mu-
seum at the time of the 16th International Congress of Zoology, held
in Washington, August 20-27, 1963. These displays illustrated facets
of the history of zoological research at the Smithsonian Institution,
the research programs currently in progress, and international co-
operation in the study of animal life.
Botany
Planning for the hall of plant life has continued at an accelerated
rate since January 1964, at which time was established a planning com-
mittee consisting of Assistant Director Richard S. Cowan, chairman,
and curators M. E. Hale, Jr., David Lellinger, T. R. Soderstrom,
Stanwyn G. Shetler, Dan Nicolson, and Richard H. Eyde. This
group met regularly with exhibits designer Rolland O. Hower to
develop specific plans for the exhibits. Study sites from which to
obtain data for construction of some of the habitat groups were
selected in the eastern United States, and preparation of botanical
models for use in the exhibits in this hall is in progress.
Paleobiology
The fourth and last of the remarkable series of mural paintings in
the hall of the age of mammals in North America, representing land
life during epochs of Tertiary time, was completed by artist Jay H.
Matternes. This mural depicts a Phocene mammalian assemblage.
14 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
Associate curator Clayton EK. Ray initiated preliminary planning
of displays in the hall to be devoted to life of the Pleistocene, the geo-
logic epoch immediately preceding the present, in consultations with
members of the exihibit staff. Much of the time of the laboratory
staff has been devoted to repairing and remounting skeletons of the
various larger Pleistocene mammals that were previously exhibited,
and in restoring new skeletal remains for presentation in this hall.
Temporary exhibits, dealing with current research programs of staff
members, were prepared by the invertebrate paleontology staff and
U.S. Geological Survey paleontologists for the Intenational Zoologi-
cal Congress in the summer of 1963, and were sent to New York City
for display at the national meetings of the Geological Society of
America and he Paleontological Society in November.
Mineral Sciences
Planning and design of the new physical geology and meteorite ex-
hibits was completed in preparation for the start of construction, which
is to provide additional space for the gem exhibits. The physical
geology exhibit will interpret the nature and properties of materials
composing the earth; the distribution of these materials throughout
the globe; the processes by which they are formed, altered, trans-
ported, and distorted; and the nature and development of the land-
scape. The new hall has been planned by curator George S. Switzer
and associate curators Paul E. Desautels and Edward P. Henderson.
The hall layout has been prepared by exhibits designer Dorothy
Guthrie.
Science and Technology
Four halls of the Department of Science and Technology in the
east portion of the first floor were open when the interior of the
Museum of History and Technology first was revealed to the public.
By means of a few choice full-scale vehicles and an extended series
of accurately and precisely executed scale models the railroad hall
interprets the history of street railways as well as railroads. The
giant 280-ton Pacific-type steam locomotive No. 1401, largest and one
of the most impressive three-dimensional specimens in the museum,
stands near the row of east windows through which it may be viewed
from outside the building at night as well as by daylight. It contrasts
sharply with the boiler from the little “Stourbridge Lion” brought
from England in 1829 to become the first steam locomotive to run on
an American railroad built for commercial use, and with the bonnet-
stacked, wood-burning locomotive “Pioneer” built in 1851 by Seth

Wilmarth for the Cumberland Valley Railroad in Pennsylvania. A
cut-away scale model of a diesel-electric locomotive shows a type that
has supplanted the steam locomotive on American railroads in recent
years. A full-scale cable car used in Seattle, Wash., in the late 19th
century stands on a section of narrow-gauge track in an elevated posi-
tion so visitors can see the underground construction required for its
operation. Basic developments in street cars, locomotives, and rail-
road cars are illustrated by nearly 80 models, most of them built to the

same scale, which faithfuliy portray notable mechanical advances and
the contributions of famous designers. Also displayed are an out-
standing collection of rail samples, and examples of railway safety
devices. The hall was planned by associate curator John H, White,
Jr., in collaboration with exhibits designers James Mahoney, Virginia
Mahoney, and Deborah Bretzfelder.
The adjacent vehicle hall traces the development of various types
of road vehicles in the United States from the 18th century to the
present day. Among the outstanding horse-drawn vehicles on dis-
play are two variations of the famous stage coach built by the Abbot,
Downing Company of Concord, N.H., and widely used in the East and
16 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
West beyond the lines of the early railroads; the finely constructed
Lawrence family coach built by Thomas Goddard of Boston in 1851;
and a city omnibus built by E. M. Miller of Quincy, Ill. The auto-
mobiles illustrate the rapid evolution of automobile design and manu-
facture from the 1890’s. Along with the pioneer Balzer and Haynes
motor wagons, appear the famous Winton mile-a-minute racer of 1902,
the Winton in which Dr. H. Nelson Jackson drove the first transcon-
tinental motor trip m 1903, and a sturdy Mack Bulldog truck. Mu-
seum specialist Donald Berkebile planned the exhibits in this hall
with assistance in layout from exhibits designer Riddick Vann.
The hall of tools illustrates the history and development of machine
tools. Introductory exhibits display hand tools with which men per-
formed laboriously tasks later accomphshed with much greater speed
and precision by machine. A short sound film in color describes the
five basic machining operations—planing, milling, drilling and boring,
turning, and grinding. A full-scale reproduction of Thomas Blanch-
ard’s gunstock lathe of 1822 introduces a series of historic special-
purpose machines which, in their capacity for producing large num-
bers of interchangeable parts, played important roles in contributing
to increased American productivity and to a higher standard of living.
The attainment of greater precision in measurement, important to the
development of machine tools, is brought out in a series of exhibits
tracing the history of measurement from the Roman cubit to modern
times. An outstanding feature of this hall is a reconstructed full-
size machine shop of about 1855 equipped with some of the oldest
machine tools in the collection. Six machines, restored to operat-
ing condition, are placed in the surroundings in which they would
have been used. They are operated by a docent at designated times
to demonstrate their functions to museum visitors. Silvio A. Bedini,
curator of civil engineering, and his predecessor, Eugene S. Ferguson,
selected the machines and planned the case exhibits in this hall with
the cooperation of exhibits designers Bright Springman, Harry Hart,
and John Clendening. William Henson installed the machines and
placed them in operating condition.
A major portion of the hall of light machinery illustrates the
evolution of timekeeping. The introductory exhibit, through a re-
volving globe bearing small sundials on its surface, demonstrates the
basic importance of the daily cycle of the earth’s rotation as the
foundation of man’s timekeeping systems. The exhibits illustrate the
gradual development of timekeeping from early sundials, sandglasses,
and waterclocks to the most precise modern electronic clocks. His-
toric examples of European and American-made clocks and watches
and a number of enlarged escapement models are included. In the
Demonstrations are con-
ducted in pre-1855 ma-
chine shop in hall of tools.

center of the hall is a reconstruction of a Renaissance clock tower, the
four sides of which will display a sun dial, and civil, astronomical, and
automaton dials actuated by an American tower clock of 1786. Both
the sun dial and civil-time dials have been installed, the former by
museum specialist Dorothy Briggs and the latter by its maker,
Thwaites and Reed of London, England. Nearby is a reconstructed
chronometer-maker’s shop of 1830, complete with the tools used by
its proprietor in manufacturing these precise instruments. The ex-
hibits in other sections of this hall show machines derived from the
skills developed by clock and instrument makers. One series traces

the development of the phonograph from Thomas Edison’s original
invention and the work of Alexander Graham Bell’s Volta Laboratory
through the more recent talking machines. Exhibits on the evolution
of the typewriter include early original machines and patent models.
Still other displays interpret the history of locks from early times to
the present, showing how new materials and more subtle engineering
concepts led to the perfection of more secure locking devices. Ex-
hibits in this hall were planned by associate curator Edwin A. Battison
in cooperation with hall designer Bright Springman and exhibits
designer Barbara Bowes.
EXHIBITS 19
At the close of the year installation of exhibits in the hall of civil
engineering, adjoining the railroad hall, were nearing completion and
plans were made for an early July opening. An interpretation of
the story of bridge and tunnel building through the ages shows
how the use of new materials enabled bridge builders to construct
longer spans and illustrates through scale models many of the classic
bridges of history. The tunnels section features a series of cutaway
scale models that illustrates the development of methods in both soft-
ground and hard-rock tunneling and depicts men constructing some
of the major tunnels in which new drilling methods and mechanisms
were employed. Associate curator Robert M. Vogel prepared the
technical specifications for this hall and the exhibits layout and design
are the work of exhibits designers John Brown and Harry Hart.
Considerable progress also was made in the installation of exhibits
in the hall of heavy machinery. ‘Those at the west end of this hall,
opened to the public in January, interpret the early development of
the steam engine, and include a reconstruction of an early Watt rota-
tive engine. The series on refrigeration and the diesel engine are to
be opened in conjunction with the adjoining civil engineering hall in
July 1964.
All free-standing exhibition cases have been installed in the Ameri-
can merchant marine hall, and a considerable number of the scale
models of historic types of vessels from the museum’s outstanding
watercraft collection have been placed in them by exhibits specialist
James A. Knowles, Jr., under the supervision of curator of transporta-
tion Howard I. Chapelle.
A temporary exhibition of communications satellites, being installed
in the northeast portion of the hall of electricity, will be available to
the public in July. An item in this exhibit is the back-up satellite for
Telstar I—presented to the museum on July 10, 1963, the first anniver-
sary of its launching. Contract installation of cases for permanent
exhibits in the southwest portion of this hall, which will interpret
current electricity, neared completion at year’s end. These exhibits
have been planned by associate curator of electricity Bernard S. Finn.
Exhibits designer Nadya Kayaloff has nearly completed the display
designs.
In the halls of pharmacy, medicine, and dentistry at the extreme
west end of the first floor, installation of an 1890 period drugstore,
of period interiors depicting a portion of a room in the Massachusetts
General Hospital, and a midwestern dentist’s office are nearing com-
pletion. The Old World apothecary shop formerly on view in the
Arts and Industries building is to be installed in the new hall of
pharmacy. Two new exhibits destined for exhibition in the new
museum were placed on temporary display in the Arts and Industries

building: A diorama depicting Dr. Philip S. Physick excising a
large paratoid gland tumor in the circular room of the Pennsylvania
Hospital in 1805, long before the discovery of anesthesia; and an
enlarged model of the human ear, donated by the Lambert Institute
of Otology of New York City. Curator of medical sciences Sami K.
Hamarneh, assisted by Dr. Alfred R. Henderson, consultant, are
completing exhibit plans for the medical science exhibits in coopera-
tion with exhibits designer, John Clendening.
The Foucault pendulum, prepared by the California Institute of
Technology and exhibited in the central rotunda of the new museum,
has fascinated visitors since the opening of the building. The division
of physical sciences, which is in charge of this exhibit, has been making
careful studies of its operation and of the problem of interpreting it
to the public. A large graphic explanation planned by curator Walter
F. Cannon, is being produced by the exhibits laboratory. Develop-
ment of exhibits for the hall of physical sciences progressed with the
completion of a layout plan for the mathematics section and the pro-
duction of all but two units in the section of astronomy.
Arts and Manufactures
The farm machinery hall, on view when the new building opened in
January, shows through displays of original objects and accurate scale
models how the invention and use of labor-saving machines played a
major role in the rapid expansion of American agriculture since the
early 19th century. The earlier hand-wielded and horse-drawn
implements are contrasted with later self-propelled machines which
performed the same basic tasks of plowing, planting, cultivating, and
harvesting food crops. The horse-drawn combine in the center of this
hall represents an early peak in mechanization. This machine, the
first built by Benjamin Holt at Stockton, Calif., in 1886, performed
all the harvesting and threshing tasks while moving through the wheat
fields of a western bonanza farm. <A feature display in the series on
the development of the plow is Thomas Jefferson’s plan for a more
efficient moldboard which any farmer of his time could make with his
own tools and fit to his plow. John Deere’s “steel” plow is shown, as
are scale models of the McCormick and Hussey reapers of the 1830's.
On view in another section of the hall is the first portable steam
engine made by J. I. Case, which produced about 8 horsepower for
driving threshers and sawmills by belt. The exhibits in this hall were
planned by associate curator Edward C. Kendall in cooperation with
exhibits designer Riddick Vann. The human figures which help to
establish scale and add interest to the miniature models of reapers were
executed by exhibits technician Susan Wallace.
EXHIBITS 21
Installation of exhibits in the new hall of graphic arts was begun
in spring of 1964 in anticipation of a fall opening of this hall, which
will explain the processes and present outstanding examples of works
created and produced by hand and by photomechanical processes.
These exhibits have been planned by curator Jacob Kainen and asso-
ciate curator Fuller O. Griffith in cooperation with exhibits designer
Nadya Kayaloff. Temporary exhibits of prints and photographs will
continue to be displayed in the Arts and Industries and the Smith-
sonian buildings until completion of the graphic arts salon in the new
museum. Nine special exhibits in graphic arts and seven featuring
the work of outstanding contemporary photographers were shown
during the year:

1964 in preparation for opening the hall the following fall. Develop-
ment of this hall is under the technical direction of curator Paul VY.
Gardner and assistant curator J. Jefferson Miller II of the division of
ceramics and glass. ‘The hall was designed by Dorothy Guthrie, and
the graphics design is being completed by exhibits designer Barbara
Bowes.
The Ninth International Exhibition of Ceramic Art, sponsored by
the Kiln Club of Washington, was held in the Natural History Mu-
seum September 8 through October 11,1963. On view were 550 pieces
of pottery, the work of ceramic artists from 39 foreign countries and
the United States. Five pieces, including two award winners from
the exhibition, were given to the division of ceramics and glass.
22 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964,
Among the displays in the preview of future exhibits in the tem-
porary exhibits gallery on the first floor of the new museum is an
early American handloom, built by a pioneer settler of western Penn-
sylvania about 1800, which is used for weekly demonstrations of
weaving by associate curator of textiles Rita Adrosko.
A reproduction of the figure-8 stellerator developed by Dr. Lyman
Spitzer of Princeton University was placed on exhibition in the
Constitution Avenue window area on the first floor of the new museum.
Symbolic of the research involving the generation of temperatures in
excess of 100 million degrees centigrade, the stellerator provides an
interesting contrast with the 19th-century farm machines which may
be seen through the display window in the adjoining hall of farm
machinery.

Civil History
Three halls dealing with civil history were on public view when the
new museum opened in January, and a fourth was formally opened
to the public in June.
The hall of everyday life in the American past, comprising the
largest exhibition gallery in the museum, displays the material evi-
dences of domestic life in America before 1900. The furnishings,
utensils, decorative arts and other objects illustrating aspects of the
cultural life of the country are presented in a series of cases, period
rooms, and platform groupings progressing chronologically from an
initial series of displays devoted to the European backgrounds of early
settlement groups to the interior of a confectioner’s shop in George-
town, D.C., at the turn of the 20th century. Among the outstanding
exhibits in the first series are a reproduction of a room from an 18th-
century Spanish New Mexican adobe home and objects of religious art
from the Franciscan missions of the Southwest. The English colonies
of the eastern seaboard are represented by displays ranging from arti-
facts obtained archeologically to fine furniture, pewter, and silver.
Period rooms in this portion of the hall include a chamber from a
17th-century Massachusetts house and mid-18th-century parlors from
Virginia and Massachusetts. An entire log house from Mill Creek
Hundred, Del., dating from about 1740, shows both the exterior and
interior construction and the furnishings of this house. Exhibits in
the 19th-century section of this hall portray the contrasts and transi-
tions from a handicraft to an industrial society through such objects
as Federal-period silver and furniture, rural pottery, foll arts, and
industrially-made decorations. Exhibits of children’s games and toys
are especially appealing to visitors of all ages. The starkly simple
furnishings of the Shaker sect appear in a display of furniture from
the collection of Dr. J. J. G. McCue. This hall was planned and
installed under the direction of curator C. Malcolm Watkins, assisted
by associate curators Rodris Roth and John N. Pearce. It was de-
signed by exhibits chief John E. Anglim, with the assistance of
exhibits designer Deborah Bretzfelder. Period rooms and the log
house were executed by George H. Watson and his staff of restoration
specialists with the professional assistance of Mrs. KE. Boyd, curator
of Spanish colonial art, Museum of New Mexico, and architects Robert
L. Raley of Newark, Del., and Robert E. Plettenberg of Santa Fe,
N. Mex.
The new First Ladies hall provides a more appealing medium for
continuing the tradition of exhibiting the dresses worn by the wife or
official hostess of each president of the United States. These dresses
show the changes in American costume from the 18th-century style
».
srsncattitatrrane estee ae

worn by Martha Washington to the simple lines and elegant fabrics
of more recent First Ladies. Three dresses were presented to the pub-
lic for the first time: the handsome Empire gown worn by Mrs. James
Madison, on loan from the William Rockhill Nelson Gallery in Kansas
City, Mo.; the garnet velvet gown worn by Rose Cleveland, sister of
President Cleveland and hostess for the first two years of his first
administration; and a black silk dress of Mrs. Grover Cleveland. The
dresses are displayed upon mannequins in a series of eight room set-
tings, each appropriately finished and furnished to indicate the periods
and environments in which the dresses were worn. ‘Two rooms repro-
duce those in the house at 190 High Street in Philadelphia, where
President and Mrs. Washington lived before the White House was
built, and display furniture and fixtures owned and used by them.
The other room settings combine architectural details from the White
House, including four original White House mantels and the 1902
paneling from the East Room, with furniture and accessories used
both in the White House and in Presidential family homes. Espe-
cially interesting are the set of gold furniture purchased for use in
the Blue Room of the White House in 1859 and used until the admin-
istration of Franklin D. Roosevelt, and the elaborate gold piano used
in the Kast Room from Theodore Roosevelt’s administration to that of
Franklin D. Roosevelt. Small cases in this hall contain personal be-

longings of the First Ladies and colorful Presidential china. A dio-
rama portrays the Oval Drawing Room in the White House as it
looked in 1814 after it was redecorated by Dolley Madison and Ben-
jamin Latrobe. This hall was developed by associate curator Mar-
garet Brown Klapthor in cooperation with exhibits chief Benjamin
W. Lawless.
The new hall of American costume adequately presents for the first
time the museum’s rich and extensive collection of men’s, women’s
and children’s clothing of the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. It in-
cludes accessories of dress such as shoes, hats, handkerchiefs, parasols,
and gloves and such decorative accessories as fans, embroidered and
beaded purses, and many fine examples of period jewelry. Many of
the clothing items are exhibited on mannequins which portray the hair

dress appropriate to the costumes, and some are shown in groupings in
partial room settings. Rare articles of everyday wear and early
underclothing are included. Among the outstanding materials pre-
sented in this graphic review of four centuries of American dress are
18th-century wraps, a freedom suit given to a young man who had
completed his apprenticeship to a cabinetmaker, an 18th-century
wedding gown of blue silk, children’s clothing of the period 1800 to
1830, a woman’s exercise suit of the mid-19th century illustrating dress
reform of the period, a dressmaker’s salon of the 1880's, and several
knee-length “flapper” dresses of the decade of the 1920’s. Illustrations
of various types of clothing selected from paintings and engravings
dealing with the history of costume supplement the original specimens
on display. The entire hall has been one of great interest for histori-
ans, artists, and students of American style and taste. The exhibits
were planned and installed under the direction of associate curator
Anne W. Murray. Hall design was by exhibits designer Robert M.
Widder; graphics design by exhibits designers Judith Borgogni,
Virginia Mahoney, and Deborah Bretzfelder.
The hall of historic Americans, opened to the public on June 30, is
unlike other museum presentations in the United States. A portion
of the hall is devoted to a capsule history of American political cam-
paign techniques, tracing their development from the era of genteel
“parlor politics” to the modern political use of the mass media of com-
munications. A dramatic political parade illustrates the development
of Presidential campaigning between 1840 and 1930. Papier-maché
marchers carry authentic political banners, pennants, and torchlights,
and wear campaign clothing and badges. In association with the
parade are exhibited a log cabin such as might have been erected as a
Whig party headquarters during the “Log Cabin and Hard Cider”
campaign of 1840, a front porch similar to those used by candidates
during the McKinley and Hardink ears, and a rear platform of a
railroad observation car representing the “‘whistle stop” period of
campaigning. An adjoming area, illustrating the important relation-
ship between politics and the press, radio, and television, includes
microphones used by Franklin D. Roosevelt in delivering his historic
radio fireside chats and by Dwight D. Eisenhower during the 1952
campaign. Other exhibitions in this hall interpret the contributions
to American history of certain major institutions and groups of
people. Personal memorabilia suggest the roles of Congress and the
Supreme Court, scholars, and “men of enterprise.” A former United
States Senate subway car is exhibited, while one of Robert C. God-
dard’s early experimental rockets indicates the impact of scientific
scholarship upon American lfe. The influence of “Americans
abroad” is suggested by an exhibition of gifts received by eminent

Americans from foreign leaders, including a Sicilian cart given to
General George C. Marshall in gratitude for American aid to Italy
during the years after World War Il. Several exhibits display
memorabilia of distinguished families and individuals—the Wash-
ington and Adams families, Ulysses S. Grant, and Abraham Lincoln.
In one of these a newly sculptured figure of Abraham Lincoln, bear-
ing the business suit which he wore on the day of his assassination,
stands in a setting which closely resembles that shown in several
Mathew Brady photographs of the President. Planning and instal-
lation of the exhibits in this hall were under the direction of curator
Wilcomb 8. Washburn, assisted by associate curator Keith E. Melder
and assistant curator Herbert R. Collins in association with exhibits
designer Robert Widder.
At the west end of the west corridor on the second floor of the new
museum the heroic statue of George Washington by Horatio Green-
ough was in place on opening day, flanked by eight cases containing
some of the great national treasures in the museum’s collections, to be
displayed later in the series of halls interpreting the growth of the
United States in the area adjoming the statue. These historic objects
include George Washington’s uniform, the portable writing desk of
Thomas Jefferson, Joseph Henry’s electromagnet, the model of the
cotton gin built by Eli Whitney, Isaac Singer’s first patent model of the
vertical-needle sewing machine, the field compass used by William
Clark, Lewis Evans’ General Map of the Middle British Colonies in
America, and George Catlin’s brushes and palette, and his oil painting
of his Indian hero, Four Bears, second chief of the Mandans.
Marked progress was made in the preparation of the hall of philately
and postal history, scheduled for opening in September 1964. During
March a Stickney rotary printing press of 1914, a Stickney coiling
machine of 1920, and related stamp production equipment were trans-
ported to the museum and moved into position in the stamp production
alcove of this hall by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Frames
and panels illustrating the postal history of the District of Columbia
anda special exhibition of the Emma Batchelor airmail collection were
installed. The series of exhibits on the history of the world’s posts were
produced, cases for models of vehicles used to transport the mails and
for postage meter and canceling machines were delivered to the hall,
and the refinishing of the pull-out frames which will exhibit by country
the systematic national postage stamp collection was completed. This
hall has been planned by curator Carl H. Scheele with the assistance
of museum technician Francis E. Welch in collaboration with exhibits
designer John Clendening.
From June 5 through July 5, 1963, an exhibition of stamps of the
world, issued in support of the Freedom from Hunger Campaign, was
EXHIBITS 29
displayed in the rotunda of the Arts and Industries building with the
cooperation of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United
Nations and the Crown Agents. Postmaster General J. Edward Day
addressed the visitors who attended the opening of this exhibition.
A comprehensive exhibition of the postage stamps of Israel was held
during November and December 1963.
Associate curator of numismatics Elvira Clain-Stefanelli, as a per-
manent delegate of the United States to the International Federation
of Medal Editors, prepared a special display of contemporary medals
produced in the United States during the past five years for the inter-
national medal exhibit arranged by that federation in The Hague,
Netherlands. With the assistance of the Medallic Art Company and
the United States Mint she also prepared a display of contemporary
United States medals for the hall of monetary history and medallic art.
A temporary display illustrating the history of the traveler’s check,
including James C. Fargo’s announcement of 1891 initiating the issu-
ance of traveler’s checks by the American Express Company, was
installed in February. On March 27 a special exhibition of original
mint models and designs for the John F. Kennedy half dollar was
placed on display through the good offices of the Director of the Mint,
Miss Eva Adams, and the Superintendent of the Philadelphia Mint,
Mr. Michael H. Sura. In April a large display of the currencies of the
Austrian Empire was installed, employing material recently received
from the Mortimer and Anna Neinken collection.
Associate curator of musical instruments Cynthia Adams Hoover
organized a recital in July 1963, given by Mr. and Mrs. Efrim Frucht-
man of the University of Arizona, who played music for viola da
gamba and harpsichord, using the museum’s restored harpsichord
made in 1745 by Johannes Daniel Dulcken of Antwerp. In May 1964,
Miss Sylvia Kenney, associate professor of music at Bryn Mawr Col-
lege, presented a lecture-recital, “Paintings, Chronicles, and Stylistic
Criteria as Guides to the Performance of 15th Century Music.”
Armed Forces History
The Star-Spangled Banner, the original flag which, during the
attack of the British fleet on September 13-14, 1814, flew over Fort
McHenry at Baltimore, Md. and inspired Francis Scott Key to write
the words of our National Anthem, was installed in the Museum of
History and Technology when the new building was opened to the
public in January. Although this most important museum object
relating to the history of the United States had been exhibited in the
Arts and Industries building ever since it was presented to the Smith-
sonian Institution in 1912, it is now for the first time displayed at full
30 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
length, undraped, and in a place of honor befitting its importance as
a national symbol.
The visitor entering the museum from the mall gains an inspiring
view of the Star-Spangled Banner hanging on the north wall of the
3-story central rotunda in an alcove specially lighted to present the
flag most effectively. The flag is displayed over a supporting fabric
that is large enough to indicate its original dimensions of 30 by 42
feet and that completely covers the specially designed metal grid
which holds the flag and its supporting fabric in a vertical position.
The flag hangs in an atmosphere of filtered air carefully controlled for
the proper temperature and humidity. The only other exhibit in the
spacious hall is a small case, to the right of the flag containing a litho-
graph of the bombardment of Fort McHenry, a British 13-inch bomb
of the type fired at that time, and a rare early edition of “The Star-
Spangled Banner.” The flag was prepared for exhibition and in-
stalled under the direction of Edgar M. Howell, curator of military
history, with the assistance of Grace Rogers Cooper, curator of textiles.
Miss Doris Bowman, Mrs. Lois Vann, and Miss Maurine Collins of
the division of textiles assisted in preparing the backing for the flag
prior to its installation. The setting for the flag was designed by
Walker Cain of the firm of Steinmann, Cain and White, architects
for the new musuem. The cased exhibit was designed by Robert
Widder.
Development of exhibits for the armed forces history halls has
occupied the entire professional staff of the department. Installation
of free-standing cases and other elements in the halls devoted to
chronological history of the armed forces, to firearms and ordnance,
and to the display of the Revolutionary War gondola Philadelphia was
inaugurated in the spring of 1964 preparatory to the opening of the
major portion of this extensive series of exhibits next spring. ‘The
displays for the chronological series have been designed by exhibits
designers Fred C. Craig and John W. Brown.
During the year rigged models of the Union gunboat Carondelet, the
Confederate ironclads Virginia and Albemarle, as well as half models
of the Kearsarge, Brooklyn, San Jacinto, and Housatonic were lent to
the Department of the Navy for Civil War exhibits at the Truxtun-
Decatur Museum and the Naval Exhibit Center. German and Jap-
anese naval uniforms and side arms of World War II were lent for
an exhibition on the Normandy and Okinawa landings, held at the
Truxtun-Decatur Museum. A model of Robert Fulton’s Steam Bat-
tery (1814) was lent to the Peabody Institute of Baltimore for its
exhibit on Baltimore during the War of 1812, held in conjunction with
the annual meeting of the Company of Military Collectors and
Historians,

Anthropology
Two large and important North American collections were acces-
sioned in the division of archeology. One, received by transfer from
the River Basin Surveys, Bureau of American Ethnology, included
18,603 specimens from the Medicine Creek Reservoir, Nebr., and com-
prises one of the largest and most complete collections extant on the
prehistoric agricultural peoples of the Central Plains in the 9th to
14th centuries. The second lot is from the 1931-82 investigations of
the Bureau of American Ethnology at Signal Butte, a key stratified
site in western Nebraska with a series of occupational levels spanning
the period from 2600 B.C. to about A.D. 1700. Other noteworthy
accessions include 1,157 pieces collected by the Bureau of American
Kthnology from the Parita and Santa Maria areas in Panama; a
group of handaxes from the Fezan and microlithic blades from Tripo-
litania, Libya, presented by James R. Jones of the U.S. ATD mission to
Libya; and an exceptionally well-preserved Egyptian cat mummy
donated by Edith Goldsmith of Methuen, Mass.
In the division of ethnology, a large portion of the year’s acquisi-
tions were obtained for use in the new hall of cultures of Africa
and Asia. Noteworthy Asian accessions included : 79 specimens rep-
resenting Chinese opera, obtained through the aid of the Chinese
Nationalist Government; 116 items relating to agriculture and daily
life in Japan, obtained from the Japanese Association of Museums;

Among the accessions in the divisions of physical anthropology
are two casts of trephined skulls from Peru, one with five and the
other with seven openings, which will be used for exhibit purposes
as examples of the number of trephine openings which have been made
in an individual’s skull during his lifetime. One of two Kraho Indian
face masks from central Brazil is to be incorporated in the map of
peoples of the world in the hall of physical anthropology. Other
accessions include skeletal materials from Virginia, Maryland, Latin
America, and Alaska.
Zoology
The total of 14,869 mammals accessioned is well in excess of the
number for any recent year and reflects a currently accelerated pro-
eram of field activity. More than 5,000 specimens came from Africa
and southwestern Asia, collected by field parties working under the
cirection of Dr. Henry W. Setzer. Tropical American areas continued
to produce large numbers of specimens. Dr. Charles O. Handley’s
general collections from Panama and Arthur M. Greenhall’s large col-
lection of bats from Trinidad are especially noteworthy. Important
accessions also came from Mexico, Nicaragua, British Guiana, and
Brazil. Of unusual interest and scientific value are a rare marbled
cat from Sumatra presented by Kent Crane, a series of baboons ob-
tained by Clifford E. Sanders in Northern Rhodesia, South American

the gift from Vassar College of the large telescope built in 1863, by
Henry Fitz, one of America’s famous telescope makers, and used by
Maria Mitchell at Vassar. Preston Bassett lent an 8-sided revolving
mirror used by Albert Michelson in his famous determination of the
velocity of light in 1924. A Collins helium cryostat, from Loyola
University of New Orleans and Arthur D. Little, Inc., and an earlier
Collins cryogenic expansion machine, from Samuel C. Collins, are
basic artifacts in the recent development of commercially available
low-temperature apparatus.
In the section of chemistry, outstanding accessions relating to the
element fluorine were a replica of the platinum apparatus for elec-
trolysis and distillation used by Henry Moissan in his epochal isola-
tion of fluorine (1886), and a commerical fluorine cell made by the
Harshaw Company in 1942-43 and given to us by the company. ‘The
Moissan apparatus was fabricated through the courtesy of the Baker
Platinum Division of Engelhard Industries, Inc.
The collection of adding and calculating machines in the section of
mathematics was notably enriched by the gift of 76 specimens from
the Victor Comptometer Corportion. The gift includes several fa-
mous historical machines, such as the Schilt adding machine of 1851,
the oldest European key-driven machine; a Bollee direct-multiplica-
tion machine, one of only three such machines made by Louis Bollee
between 1888 and 1892; and the famous Scheutz difference engine of
1853, the first complete difference engine ever built. A replica of
Charles Babbage’s difference engine was donated by the International
Business Machines Corporation.
Among the most outstanding accessions in the section of light ma-
chinery and horology was a pocket watch made by Henry and James F.
Pitkin of East Hartford, Conn., in about 1838. This specimen is an
example of the first American attempt at watchmaking by machines.
Other significant acquisitions by this section were a splendid example
of a French skeleton clock of the late 18th century and a combination
lock patented in 1841 by Dr. Solomon Andrews, an American inventor.
The section of tools acquired the J. R. Brown linear dividing ma-
chine of 1859 from the Brown and Sharpe Company, which was a
milestone in the history of measurement in American manufacturing.
A. fully operative reproduction of the gun-stocking lathe developed
by Thomas Blanchard in 1820-22 was also received. This pioneer
machine, the original of which is in the Springfield Armory in Spring-
field, Mass., represents the beginning of American mass production
by machine tools. <A rare 19th-century Holtzapftel ornamental turn-

ing lathe was acquired with a very comprehensive collection of acces-
sories. Edward Johansson, Royal Swedish Consul at Detroit, donated
a set of Johansson gauge blocks for the hall. The adoption of the
system of gauges, invented in the late 19th century by his father,
C. E. Johansson, revolutionized mass production by making it possible
to achieve universal interchangeability of machine parts. This par-
ticular set was the first to be produced in stainless steel and was made
especially to be given to the inventor, on his 71st birthday in 1933.
The presentation was made in a formal ceremony in the hall of tools
on March 13 by the Royal Swedish Ambassador, His Excellency
Hubert de Besch.
Among the outstanding models received by the division of trans-
portation, were a Pacific Coast lumber steamer, a 4-masted barkentine,
and the schooner “ly of 1812. A model of the new class of fast
freight steamers, the American Chailenger, 1962 record holder for
the North Atlantic crossing by a freighter, was received from the
United States Lines as a gift.
The oldest scale model of an American-built ship, His Majesty’s
44-oun ship America, built at Portsmouth, N.H., in 174647, was
received as a 3-year loan from the trustees of the Portsmouth Athe-
naeum, Portsmouth, N.H., on a special agreement. The model will be
repaired and exhibited by the marine section and, after a year, trans-
ferred to the division of naval history for a 2-year exhibition period.
Three early railway signals (1880-1905) were donated by ‘Thomas
T. Taber to the section of land transportation. The vehicle collection
was enriched by several important additions. The Mack Bulldog
truck (1950) is the first commercial motor vehicle to be added to the
collection and was donated by Victor Ottilio & Sons. <A fine Rock-
away (1860) was the gift of Mr. and Mrs. Carl F. Flemer, Jr. A
Hack Passenger Wagon (1880), more commonly called a mud wagon,
was also added to the carriage collection.
The largest object accessioned in the division of electricity was an
85-ton alternating-current generator from the Adams station at
Niagara Falls, donated jointly by Niagara-Mohawk Power Corp.
and Westinghouse Electric Corp. It is this alternator that maugu-
rated in 1895 the modern era of central stations distributing electrical
power over large areas. A somewhat smaller, but very important,
magneto generator was received from the University of Virginia. It
was made by Hippolyte Pixii in 1832 or 1838, and represents the first
use of a commutator for the production of direct current. Only two
other machines like this are known to exist in the world. <A third
generator, by Charles Wheatstone, was obtained on indefinite loan
from King’s College, University of London. It is one of the first
ACCESSIONS AT
examples of a self-excited dynamo, a principle that was discovered
coincidentally by Wheatstone in England and Werner Siemens in
Germany in 1866. Excellent replicas of four alternating current
motors representing the pioneer work of Galileo Ferraris in 1885 were
given to the museum by the Associazione Elettrotecnica ed Elettronica
Italiana and Istituto Elettrotecnico Nazionale Galileo Ferraris of
Turin.
Among the major accessions during the past year in the division
of medical sciences were a collection of tools and research apparatus
used in a late 19th-century microbiology and biochemistry laboratory,
donated by the University of Michigan, and the 1953 hydraulic tur-
bine contra-angle handpiece with accessories and test model for dental
drilling, from the National Bureau of Standards. Also acquired were
the office material, dental instruments, and personal memorabilia of
Dr. Charles E. Kells as a gift from his daughter, Mrs. J. O. Pierson,
through the School of Medicine of Tulane University. ‘To the phar-
maceutical collection, an ancient Egyptian mortar and pestle, weights,
and amulets were added.
Arts and Manufactures
Mr. Ralph E. Becker presented to the division of textiles a compre-
hensive collection of silk Jacquard-woven pictures. These interesting
examples of an unusual weaving art date from 1867 through the 1930's.
The wide variety of subjects include pictures of Columbus sighting
America, Betsy Ross stitching the flag, and facsimiles of the signa-
tures of the Declaration of Independence. An excellent collection of
American needlework was presented by Dr. Margaret R. Sandels. One
of the embroidered pictures, Z’he Sea Beast, of Mrs. 'Theodore Roose-
velt, Jr., a noted needlewoman, was given by Mr. and Mrs. Sidney
dela Rue. A colorful 18th-century floral border by the distinguished
French designer, Philippe de Lasalle, was added to the brocade
collection.
Mrs. Clara W. Berwick supplemented her previous gifts to the divi-
sion of ceramics and glass by 74 pieces of rare early American glass
and 22 European and Oriental ivories. Robert H. McCauley pre-
sented 65 pieces of Liverpool-type transfer-printed earthenware, in-
cluding a number of rare pitchers decorated with American themes.
Mr. McCauley is the author of the definitive book, Liverpool Trans-
fer Designs on Anglo-American Pottery. Mr. William A. Suther-
land continued to add to the division’s collection of 18th-century
English porcelains. This year she gave 28 fine examples of the produc-
tion of 10 important factories, including a splendid Derby pitcher and
4S U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964,
a rare Lowestoft coffee pot. Dr. Hans Syz presented by transfer 53
pieces of 18th-century European porcelain. This collection, one of the
finest in America, is especially notable for examples of the important
German factories, such as Meissen, Berlin, Hohst, Frankenthal, Lud-
wigsburg, and of the extremely rare Viennese porcelain of the DuPa-
quier period.
Liverpool pitcher, ca. 1805, with full-length transfer print of Thomas
Jefferson. From Robert H. McCauley collection.
The most important accession received in the division of graphic
arts was a bequest of 243 Currier & Ives lithographs of sporting and
western subjects from the Adele S. Colgate Estate. This gift greatly
enhances the standing of the Museum’s collection of Currier & Ives
prints. The important gift of Mr. Erich Cohn of 20 drawings and
etchings by the German expressionist artists, Paul Kleinschmidt and
Ludwig Meidner, records a part of what was probably the strongest
group contribution to printmaking in this century. The Society of
Washington Printmakers donated, through its President, M1. Prentiss
Taylor, the intaglo print, Zmage 7/17, by Lois Fine; the woodeut Zhe
Valley, by Isabella Walker; and the lithograph, Nova Scotia, by Louis
Lozowick.
The section of photography acquired a number of historically note-
worthy specimens of photographs and equipment. Lucien G. Bull of
Paris presented a large group of material related to the early history
ACCESSIONS 49
of high-speed photography, consisting of original negatives, prints and
an electromechanical timing device. Ansco, Binghampton, N.Y., pre-
sented a model of a photographic wagon of the type used by Mathew
Brady during the Civil War. Nikon, Inc., presented a “Nikonos” 3
mm. underwater camera, with watertight lens and body, for use under
water without a protective housing. The New York Daily Mirror
donated a lightweight Zeiss Ikon, Ernemann plate camera, originally
purchased in the 1930’s by William Randolph Hearst to replace the
bulkier cameras used by his newspapers, and another specially designed
camera intended to take pictures from a concealed position.
The division of manufactures and heavy industries continued to
collect for the various halls planned for the Museum of History and
Technology. New York University presented to the section of nuclear
energy the first subcritical reactor to be installed in a teaching institu-
tion. It was improvised from two tons of fuel lent by the U.S. Atomic
Energy Commission and installed in a pickle barrel, and it enabled the
university to secure at a cost of $1,500 a teaching research facility
which might otherwise have been unattainable.
Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company presented a model of an
electric weld pipe mill for the hall of iron and steel. A malleable-iron
air furnace was given by Erie Malleable Iron Co.; and some Roman
nails from the Inchtuthil excavation in Scotland came from Colvilles,
Ltd., of Glasgow.
The section of petroleum received further gifts as a result of the
excellent work of the American Petroleum Institute’s subcommittee.
Among these were: An animated model of a modern sea-going drilling
installation from Kerr-McGee Oil Industries, Inc.; three models of
drilling rigs from the Lee C. Moore Corp.; and an interesting survey
model of the Velma field from Skelly Oil Co.
The division of agriculture and forest products has been princi-
pally concerned with obtaining materials for the hall of forest prod-
ucts. The Forest Products Laboratory, Department of Agriculture,
Madison, Wis., gave a swellograph—a device that measures swelling
changes in wood which has a finished surface. Larus and Brother
Co., Inc., reproduced a tobacco hogshead like those used 125 to 150
years ago. Permali, Inc., contributed samples of machined parts
for electrical equipment and Fibron Products, Buffalo, N.Y., gave 17
handsome pieces of compressed wood products. To the agricultural
collection has been added catalogs of agricultural implement com-
panies around 1880 belonging to Sylvanus D. Locke, the inventor of
the famous wire binder. Mr. Gordon Dentry donated a 4-tined wooden
fork used by his grandfather and possibly his great-grandfather in
Baltimore County, Md.

Several items with Presidential associations received in the divi-
sion of political history include a pair of leather chaps worn by
President Theodore Roosevelt in the Dakota Territory, the gift
of Mr. and Mrs. Kermit Roosevelt; a meerschaum pipe used by
President Ulysses S. Grant in the White House, from the estate
ef George W. Crouch; one of the microphones used by President
Franklin D. Roosevelt during his “fireside chats” to the American
people in the 1930’s and 1940's, the gift of the Columbia Broadcasting
System and WTOP-Radio, Washington, D.C.; a pen used on Jan. 23,
1964, by President Lyndon B. Johnson to sign the bill establishing the
John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the gift of Sena-
tor Clinton P. Anderson. Important additions to the First Ladies
collection are two dresses worn by Mrs. Grover Cleveland as First
Lady and an evening cape which had belonged to her, gifts of Mr.
and Mrs. Richard F. Cleveland. One of the new dresses, of black
satin and iridescent taffeta, now represents Mrs. Cleveland in the ex-
hibit in the First Ladies hall.
During the year, 303 examples of costume were added to the Ameri-
can costume collection. Outstanding among these additions were a
diamond necklace given by Mr. and Mrs. Henry W. Breyer, Jr.; a
diamond and pearl necklace donated by Mrs. Gibson L. Caldwell; a
collection of very fine furs given by Mrs. Herbert A. May; an 18th-
century wedding dress given by Miss Lenora Bessey through Mrs.
Austin H. Clark; a pair of shoe buckles of about 1800 donated by Miss
Gertrude Watts; and a wedding dress of 1858 given by Mrs. Lloyd S.
Smith.
The division of cultural history received the frame and woodwork
of an entire house, the gift of Alexander B. C. Mulholland; built in
Ipswich, Mass., the older portion of this house dates from the late
17th century and the remainder from about 1750. The Honorable
David Bruce presented 18th-century woodwork and paneling from
two rooms from Charleston, S.C., houses. The architecture of Louis
Sullivan is represented in one lot of ornaments from his Chicago
Stock Exchange Building, given by Mr. and Mrs. Leon M. Despres,
and in another lot from Sullivan’s Garrick Building, given by the
Joint Committee on Preservation of the Garrick Building Ornament
aad by the World Book Eneyelopedia. Mr. and Mrs. Fielding Pope
Meigs, Jr., presented 223 miscellaneous pieces of furniture, utensils,
portraits, and other items, all heirlooms of the Meigs family. Other
gifts include 33 rare early maps, a gouache by D. Y. Cameron, a paint-

the Department of Defense.
o2 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964,
To the division of numismatics was added an original pewter strik-
ing of the noted Castorland token made for the officers of the French
colony established at Carthage, N.Y., 1796, and a rare pattern
half dollar of 1916, both given by Ben Douglas. Other outstanding
additions to the United States series were a $20 goldpiece in high
relief and a $10 goldpiece originally owned by Henry Hering, who
completed the design of these coins in 1907 for Augustus St. Gaudens,
and Mr. Hering’s notes concerning the history of this gold coinage
and the interest in it of President Theodore Roosevelt; these were
the gift of Stack’s of New York. A die used by the J. J. Conway
Co. of Colorado in the striking of a private $5 goldpiece was donated
by Robert Bashlow. Joseph B. Stack gave tintypes of the Bechtler
family, well-known private gold coiners from North Carolina, a da-
guerreotype of John Little Moffat, a leading coimer in San Francisco
during the gold rush, and the notebook of the mint engraver, J. B.
Longacre, concerning the design of the 1856 flying-eagle cent.
An important collection of silver bars, bullet money, and various
forms of media of exchange used in Siam and China was donated by
Mrs. F. C. C. Boyd; Harvey Stack gave the Edith and Jean Jacques
Ture collection of necessity pieces issued in France and the French
colonies during the 1914-26 period. Willis du Pont added 645 coins
struck during the second part of the reign of Catherine II of Russia
and 210 Russian silver and bronze medals. Mrs. Wayte Raymond
gave 1,167 coins of the world struck during the 19th and 20th cen-
turies. Mr. and Mrs. Mortimer Neinken made an important contri-
bution of a specialized collection of checks of United States banks
and a collection of nearly 10,000 items of European paper currencies
and documents of value. The first instance of the use of paper in
coinage, a quarter gulden in cardboard issued in Leyden in
1573 during the seige by the Spaniards, was a gift from Dr. V.
Clain-Stefanelli.
To the division of philately and postal history Baron Takaharu
Mitsui of Tokyo, Japan, donated an outstanding group of early let-
ters and documents pertaining to the private posts of 19th-century
Japan and the early government postal service of that country.
Morrison Waud of Chicago, Ill, gave a large and comprehensive
collection of United States newspaper stamps, proofs, essays, and
forgeries and 669 examples of stamped revenue paper. Mr. and Mrs.
R. O. D. Hopkins donated a collection of essays and die proofs of
the stamps of China and placed additional material of that nature
on loan. <A large specialized collection of stamps of South Africa
was given by Dr. O. L. Harvey. Dr. James Matejka donated early
airmail stamps of Syria and a rare airmail stamp of France. Harry

covers, many of which bear special postal markings and commemo-
rative stamps. Charles H. Wuerz, Jr., continued to contribute
stamps of Siam in an effort to complete that section of the National
Postage Stamp collection.
Armed Forces History
A fine example of a Gatling gun was presented by the Armed
Forces of Honduras. Mrs. George C. Marshall presented several uni-
forms worn by General of the Army George C. Marshall during
World War II. The division of naval history made significant addi-
tions to the national collection of historic warship models while pro-
jecting further units required to complete the hall of armed forces
history. Particularly notable was a rigged model of Robert Fulton’s
Steam Battery, the world’s first steam man-o-war, which was built
by Adam and Noah Brown in 1814 for the defense of New York.
Plans for this 26-gun blockship were provided by Howard I.
Chapelle who in 1961 discovered a contemporary draught of the
Steam Battery in the Danish Royal Archives at Copenhagen. By
happy coincidence, the division of naval history also received an origi-
nal Fulton draught of the armored torpedo boat J/ute, presented by
the family of George F. Brown, descendants of her versatile builders,
the Brown brothers of New York. ‘The emergence of the steam navy
was further represented with the completion of a superb model of
the side-wheel steamer Powhatan which served with Commodore
Perry in the opening of trade with Japan.
Through the generosity of the U. S. Coast Guard, the division of
naval history received a fully-equipped beach cart of the type used
by the Life Saving Service for offshore rescue, a set of range lights
from Alaska, and an oil painting by Hunter Wood of the topmast
schooner Massachusetts, first cutter commissioned by the early Reve-
nue Marine.
A patent model of the revolutionary K—1 firing device, the heart
of the antenna mine employed in the North Sea mine barrage during
World War I, was presented by Mrs. Ralph C. Brown, widow of its
eifted inventor. Vivid memories of the battle of Midway were evoked
by the bullet-torn flight jacket and combat decorations donated by
George H. Gay, sole survivor of Torpedo Squadron 8.
Among the more important objects acquired by the section of under-
water exploration during the year are ship’s fittings from a wreck
site in Bermuda believed to date from the 1560’s. These include a bar
shot, several single blocks, two parrels, small and medium-sized dead-
eyes, and a large collection of ceramic sherds some of which will yield
nearly complete vessels when reconstructed.

Anthropology
The custodial and other departmental activities concerned with
maintenance and preservation of collections are still hampered by
construction work, but improvement over the preceding year can be
noted in several particulars. In the division of archeology, all stor-
age units from the third floor corridors have been moved to permanent
quarters on the fourth floor; the special air-conditioned textile room
at the east end of the attic has been occupied; metal shelving for
heavy stone objects has been installed behind the exhibits area in
hall 21; and much useful space for storage of drawers, trays, and
pasteboard boxes has been gained by partial flooring over the skyhght
space. White paint on the walls and added lighting fixtures have
very greatly improved working facilities in the division’s attic space.
In the division of ethnology, the movement of North American
Indian collections into the north attic has been almost completed; and
the arrival of a supply of storage cases has made possible a significant
improvement in the previously crowded conditions here. The re-
arrangement of the African and Asian collections on the fifth floor of
the east wing continued; special attention was given items requiring
protection. A temporary workshop for cleaning and restoration of
objects needed for exhibits was set up in the attic, and a crew of col-
lege students worked on a contract basis under technical supervision of
Mr. Charles Olin of the Conservation Laboratory. Continuation of
this successful enterprise is anticipated.

56 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
In the division of physical anthropology, a double move of the brain
collection and the Aleutian and Kodiak Island materials, was occa-
sioned by preparation for renovation of the present quarters of the
division.
The repair and restoration of damaged anthropological specimens,
including newly received objects and others from older collections
continued to occupy the time of exhibits specialist A. J. Andrews; ap-
proximately 200 archeological, ethnological, and skeletal items were
treated in his laboratory. As in previous years, several tasks were
done for other units in the Smithsonian Institution, and technical in-
formation on preservation and conservation methods was suppled
to individuals outside the agency. Scientific illustrator George R.
Lewis completed 465 stipple- and 87 line-drawings, 25 maps and
charts, 2 signs and labels, 1 color and 6 detailed pencil drawings, most
of which will be included in archeological and ethnological manu-
scripts intended for publication.
Zoology
The rapid growth of the collections, the necessary disruptions of
normal routine procedures by the building construction program, and
the anticipated move to new quarters combined to create unusually
dificult problems in caring for the zoological collections.
In the division of mammals, good progress was made by museum
aide B. T. Lovinggood in rearranging the alcoholic collections, and
about two-thirds of this material is now properly organized; newly
accessioned material was integrated as it was received. The card-
index system was reorganized and brought up to date. The renova-
tion of the west attic was completed and the skeleton collection that
had been evacuated from that area in the previous year was returned ;
its final arrangement cannot be made until the part of the attic area
now occupied by other divisions is made available.
In the division of birds, museum specialist Theodore S. Bober has
had major responsibility for the care of the collections. With his
assistance, Dr. George E. Watson planned for the installation of 400
new cases in the skin and skeleton collection. Under the direction
of the latter, summer intern David A. Bratley rearranged the entire
library collection, rare folio volumes and field catalogs now being
stored in locked cabinets. Dr. R. L. Zusi supervised arrangements
for the installation of equipment in the alcoholic storage room and
has developed plans for rearranging the anatomical collections. A
geographic punch-card file of species needed for the skeleton and
alcoholic collections is in preparation, and lists of desiderata will be
prepared for field parties in various parts of the world. Research
CARE OF COLLECTIONS 57
associate Alexander Wetmore, and Dr. Lester L. Short, Jr., John W.
Aldrich, and Mrs. Roxie Laybourne of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service have generously provided identifications and information to
the division of birds. Dr. Short assumed major responsibility for the
care of the collection of North American birds.
In the division of reptiles and amphibians, museum aide Dorsey
Williams completed an inventory of the entire collection of reptiles
and amphibians. Most of the specimens misplaced in previous years
have been located and properly filed, recent acquisitions have all been
cataloged, and only a limited number of specimens remain to be
identified.
With the assistance of a temporary aide in the division of fishes,
about 50 percent of the glass jars in the alcohol storage area were ex-
amined and the alcohol content replaced or altered to proper level
and strength. This project will be continued and should be accele-
rated by the addition of another aide in the division. About 47 new
storage tanks were acquired, replacing about twice as many crocks.
This project is progressing slowly; there remain 132 crocks from
which the loss of alcohol endangers the specimens stored in them. A
new system of cataloging collections, involving 3 x 5’’ cards, has been
devised and will be operational by July 1964.
Critical shortage of space in the existing alcohol stack in the divi-
sion of marine invertebrates has resulted from the acquisition of large
collections from the Antarctic and from the Atlantic coast, and from
the return of large segments of collections which had been sent to spe-
cialists for identification. These collections have necessitated the
use of temporary storage in other divisions and at the Sorting Center.
Dry collections, now stored in a number of areas in the Natural His-
tory Museum, were almost completely reorganized for moving them
into the west wing. The worm groups were rearranged and put in
proper order, collections of stomatopods were expanded and reorga-
nized, and nondecapod crustacean types were segregated and reshelved
systematically. Museum specialist Henry B. Roberts, who bears pri-
mary responsibility for the organization of the move of the collections,
spent considerable time in designing and planning new cataloging
procedures. Mrs. Emily Mandelbaum, museum technician, made
great progress in the cataloging of the polychaete collection and spent
considerable time in rearranging general collections. Miss Maureen
Downey, museum technician, continued her work on the echinoderm
collection and arranged publications, manuscripts, and other docu-
ments in preparation for the move of the division. Museum techni-
cian Roland Brown assisted in the movement of collections in the
alcohol stacks and processed incoming collections; and museum tech-
nician T. P. Lowe completed the organization of the coral collections
744-993-645
58 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
and of the stony hydroids. Much progress was made in examining
the alcoholic collections for state of preservation and transferring
specimens from the older ground-glass sealed bottles to clamp-top,
rubber sealed jars. Summer intern James Casey worked principally
on the divisional library, bringing the filing of separates and their
card indexing up to date. Summer intern Richard Laub arranged
the Tertiary fossil corals, a collection that had never been organized.
With the addition of new quarter-unit cases in the division of mol-
lusks, the storage facilities for the reference collection is adequate,
and progress has been made in distributing the previously crowded
portions of the collection in the new cases. A rearrangement of cer-
tain families that have been sorted on a geographical basis to a sys-
tematic one was 2lso initiated. The helminthological collection, both
slides and alcoholic specimens, in the care of the Beltsville Parasitologi-
cal Laboratory, is in excellent condition.
Entomology
In the division of Coleoptera, with the aid of a National Science
Foundation grant, several thousand specimens of the scarab genus
Atsenius were mounted. labeled, and placed in museum drawers, and
7,000 specimens of Neotropical water beetles were prepared for critical
study and placed in standard museum drawers. An additional 9,500
specimens of water beetles are on hand and preparation of them is
continuing.
David R. Rentz, while serving as a summer intern, incorporated
certain orthopterous insects, accumulated over a period of many years,
with the main series of our determined collection. This major proj-
ect required the sorting of 146,000 specimens and arranging them in
their proper places under appropriate names. This part of the col-
lection now occupies 400 drawers in 19 standard cases.
Marked improvement in the collection of Neuroptera, Trichoptera,
and allied groups occurred again this year with the addition of more
than 20,000 specimens. Among these were 291 species, 36 genera, and
one family not previously represented in the national collection.
This year emphasis has been placed on reorganization and rehabili-
tation in the Hemiptera collection. Mrs. Florence A. Ruhoff has
heen instrumental in accomplishing this task. The major heter-
opterous families Lygaeidae, Miridae, Reduviidae and Coreidae, as
well as most of the small families, were rearranged and labeled to
conform to a uniform system now in use, and in the process numerous
small lots of specimens were incorporated. The rearranged part of
the collection now occupies 779 standard drawers. Research associate
Carl J, Drake actively continued improvement of the Drake collection

by a program of exchange and cooperative publication with other
workers. By this means he acquired numerous types and specimens
of other species not previously represented in the national collection.
Research associate C. F. W. Muesebeck continued to bring improve-
ment and growth to the collection of braconid wasps by an active
program of research and by his cooperative work with students in
other institutions.
In the division of Lepidoptera the condition of the collection con-
tinued to improve during the year. Mrs. Joan Ledbetter, museum
aide, completed labeling and transferring to standard museum draw-
ers the following three collections: Ernest Shoemaker collection, 4,100
specimens; J. C. Hopfinger collection, 5,500 specimens; Graham Heid
collection, 1,500 specimens. In addition, Mrs. Ledbetter spread and
labeled 1,100 specimens obtained on recent expeditions. More than
1,600 Microlepidoptera from Rapa, mostly Tortricidae, have been pre-
pared, labeled and placed in the collection. The Neotropical Ypono-
meutidae were rearranged and properly labeled in accordance with
contemporary systems, and the Western Hemisphere Stenomidae were
appreciably augmented by the identification and addition of many
species not previously represented.
Summer intern Jay C. Shaffer amalgamated three separate collec-
tions of pyraloid moths totaling 11,500 specimens into a single, well-
organized unit, making available heretofore nearly maccessible data.
Restoration and rehousing of the oldest holdings of Arachnida and
Myriapoda continued. Many old specimens have been restored by the
use of trisodium phosphate, rebottled and relabeled. More than
306,000 ticks were restored during the past year by museum aide
Mrs. Sophie Lutterlough, using this procedure, and the treatment of
the tick collection is continuing. Many old or damaged microscopic
preparations have been disassembled and remounted.
During the year Mrs. Mary Quigley mounted 5,079 miscellaneous
insects and summer intern Mrs. Kathleen Rentz prepared 3,283 mis-
cellaneous insects, all of which were incorporated in the collection.

There are now 59,732 types in the segregated type herbarium, in-
cluding 41,719 phanerogams, 10,133 grasses, 3,484 ferns, and 4,396
cryptogams. ‘This is an increase of 430 types during the year.
Paleobiology
In the division of paleobotany museum technician James P.
Ferrigno, under the supervision of associate curator Francis M.
Hueber, segregated approximately 48 percent of the primary and
secondary type specimens from the general] paleobotanical collections.
The types are being checked for accuracy of labeling by comparing
them with original illustrations and descriptions, and are being
arranged alphabetically under the heading used in their original pub-
lication. After completion of segregation, the individual groups of
specimens will be arranged in chronological order by publication, thus
eliminating the problems raised by changes in taxonomic classification
of particular species, and also by changes of interpretation of geologic
age of the specimens.
Curatorial work in the invertebrate paleontology collections cen-
tered on the carding of type specimens. Much progress was made
in building a card file of all types as an addition to the standard cata-
loging procedures now in use. The cards serve as a ready reference
for specimen control and as the primary source of data for a pub-
lished catalog, the first section of which is in the final stage of
preparation. The conodont and Paleozoic nautiloid collections are
carded and the manuscript preparation is undergoing final typing;
the blastoid, cystoid, and echinoid type collections are carded and
waiting for the recording of the crinoids prior to publication.
Dr. P. M. Kier completed the integration of the U.S. Geological
Survey collection of fossil echinoids with the museum collection, mak-
ing for the first time a usable biologically arranged collection of all
specimens available at the museum.
The arrival of some new cases has enabled storage of part of the
extensive stratigraphically arranged reference collections. Museum
specialist Frederick Collier and museum technician Lorenzo Ford
checked the geographic arrangement and placed more than 250
quarter-unit cases of drawers containing tens of thousands of speci-
mens. These collections are now readily available for the first time
since the move to the east wing storage area where they had been
stacked. ;
Dr. Richard Cifelli developed a significant advance in the prepara-
tion and sorting of Foraminifera from general plankton collections.

rapidly achieved by ignition: the sample is washed with distilled water
and dried, it is then burned at a temperature of 500° C. to remove all
organic matter, leaving foraminiferal tests unaltered. Because the
average plankton sample consists of a large variety of organisms
with high protoplasm-skeletal ratios, the work of separating the
Foraminifera from the mass with needles has been a tedious and time-
consuming task. With this new technique, the number of samples
handled is greatly mcreased over a given time.
In vertebrate paleontology the recent acquisition of storage cases
to completely utilize the space provided on the first floor of the east
wing now permits better distribution and organization of the collec-
tions and, as planned, provides for a normal increase in the collections
for several years. Transfer to this storage area of the large residue
of fossil fish and the smaller collections of fossil birds, formerly on
the steel range of the old storage area, has freed the latter for the
rapidly expanding collections of fossil marine mammals and has also
permitted better care of the large series of titanothere skulls, formerly
on display but now stored in temporary, inadequate racks on the
ground floor of the old area.

62 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
The construction of covered racks with sliding doors over the
quarter-unit cases of each third double row, now two-fifths completed,
provides adequately protected space for storage of most of the larger
dinosaur bones, fish slabs, and plaques. An important beginning was
aiso made in similarly protecting the numerous, bulky remains of the
larger mammals, such as the proboscideans, bison, ground sloths, and
titanotheres.
Mineral Sciences
During the year both the polished and thin-section collections of
meteorites were photographed, and the task of assembling this mate-
rial into albums was started. Because the meteorite collection previ-
ously had been stored in a non-air-conditioned area, protecting the
specimens against corrosion due to humidity had always been a con-
stant problem. The collection now is housed in a room with con-
trolled 25 percent relative humidity and the polished specimens are
much more stable. Some of the specimens most susceptible to cor-
rosion have been sectioned and mounted in plastic. Others which
proved difficult to preserve are housed in cabinets in which electric
lights are burned continuously to further reduce the humidity.
Science and Technology
Considerable staff time in the division of physical sciences has
been devoted to planning the move into the reference area in the new
museum. Details of the actual move were handled by scientific instru-
ment repairer C. KE. Dennison. Because of disruption of the old lab-
oratory and incomplete equipment in the new one, most complex res-
toration work has been suspended. Scientific instrument repairer
C. G. Smith restored a beautiful antique quadrant, and experimented
on new types of lacquer for preserving indefinitely the surface of re-
stored instruments.
In the division of mechanical and civil engineering the transfer
of offices and collections permitted a much more rational scheme of
specimen storage; special shelving has made the reference collections
more readily accessible for the staff as well as for study by interested
visitors. Every effort was directed also to the restoration of speci-
mens scheduled for exhibition, particularly in the section of tools and
of light machinery and horology. The National Air Museum facility
at Silver Hill completed the restoration of the Pelton-Riedler pump-
ing engine, and that of the large American diesel engine.
With the movement of the collections into the new building, the
division of electricity now has a true reference area where the objects
are easily available. Most of the items chosen for exhibition have

been renovated. Electronic equipment repairer Roy V. LaRoche
made considerable progress in restoring television sets to operating
condition, and museum technician Elhot Sivowitch completed the
arduous task of cataloging the radio tubes from the Franklin Wingard
collection.
In the division of medical sciences, museum technicians George
Ford and Everett Jackson aided in the transfer of the medical, dental,
and pharmaceutical collections and fixtures to the new museum. The
operation was completed without a single instance of breakage or
damage to the collections which are composed largely of fragile mate-
rial and drug containers. In the division of transporation, three
carriage restorations, the Bayly gig, Saltonstall buggy, and the Still-
man landau, were completed.
Arts and Manufactures
The reference collections of the division of agriculture and forest
products have been moved to the new museum. ‘The entire reference
64 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964,
collection has been consolidated, and the new storage units used for
patent models afford better accessibility and added protection.
In the division of graphic arts, the Franklin press was dismantled,
thoroughly cleaned, and reassembled preparatory to being placed on
exhibition. The same procedure was followed with the Gordon-type
job press, the linotype machines of 1884 and of 1920, the monotype
caster and keyboard, and the Bruce typecasting machine. Reorgani-
zation of the hand-process prints continued; several hundred prints
were covered with acetate sheets and about two hundred prints were
matted. Museum technician Elhott Hawkins examined and reor-
ganized the illustrations file and established a new motion picture sec-
tion. Associate curator Eugene Ostroff, continued his long-range
program of reviewing the entire collection. Special attention was
given to the editing and preservation of photographs, the entire col-
lection having been brought together in the air-conditioned storage
facilities of the new offices.
Removal of the collections of manufactures and heavy industries
from the Arts and Industries building and their rearrangement in
the new museum was accomplished by museum technicians John C.
Carter and Francis Gadson with a minimum of interruption to cur-
rent work. Mr. Gadson skillfully restored and repaired items in the
collections of this and other divisions of the department, while Mr.
Carter maintained effective control over the material being assembled
for five halls of greatly diverse character.
The division of textiles collections of more than 40,000 cataloged
items were moved to their new location in the new museum, under
the supervision of museum technician Everett Parker.
During this fiscal year, 205 items from the textile collections were
successfully cleaned in the textile laboratory by Miss Maureen Collins.
This work has been confined to the use of proved methods for cleaning
undyed items of cotton and linen that are of a size that can be safely
handled in the limited space available. Both nonionic detergent and
a neutral soap have been used successfully with distilled water. Vari-
ous methods of hand blocking have been perfected for finishing these
textiles; a heated iron is never used. For articles of this limited size,
the results have been excellent and the smoothed end product is far
superior to the most carefully ironed one and with less chance of dam-
age from the drying effects of the heated iron. The articles included
lace, needlework, crochet, damask, and plain fabric in caps, edgings,
handkerchiefs, bodices, sleeves, pockets, and so forth. The work of
the textile laboratory included several items received from other
divisions.
Screening is necessary to properly support fragile fabrics in the
water solutions. The saran screening formerly used has been re-

placed by fiberglass screening, which, it was found, is more pliable,
does not ravel, and is easier to handle than the saran. For one piece
of Valenciennes edging so badly deteriorated that the screening did
not offer sufficient support, the lace was stitched between layers of
crepeline and then between layers of screening. The cleaning pro-
cedure could then be followed as usual. The lace having been cleaned,
the screening was removed and the crepeline left for ease in future
handling.
Civil History
Museum technician Richard Muzzrole cleaned, renumbered, and
recataloged the museum’s large collection of whaling irons, correlating
specimens with data published in the descriptive catalog of the col-
lections sent from the United States to the International Fisheries
Exhibition in London in 1885. This well-documented collection has
thus been revived to its original usefulness after being moribund for
80 years. Museum technician Jay Scott Odell carried on a continuing
conservation program for the musical instrument collection in the new
musical instruments laboratory, where installation of equipment has
66 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
commenced. Expert consultants called in to advise on restoration
included Donald Warnock of Cambridge, Mass., for plucked strings;
Charles Fisk of Gloucester, Mass., for pipe organs; and Robert Shel-
don of Arlington, Va., for brass instruments.
The division of cultural history has been participating in the experi-
mental use of the Termatrex system of data retrieval as applied to
museum objects. The experiment, undertaken by means of an anony-
mous private foundation grant to the Henry Francis du Pont Winter-
thur Museum, involved several participating institutions. It was in-
augurated with an opening seminar at the Winterthur Museum,
attended by curator C. Malcolm Watkins, who read a paper “Problems
in Cataloguing Museum Objects.” The goals of this experiment are
simplified and controlled recording of the collections, efficient locating
of objects, and a vaster capability in extracting data concerning the
collections.
The move of the civil history collections from the Arts and Indus-
tries building was carried out successfully and all the items in scat-
tered and unsatisfactory storage areas were brought together in a more
efficient, centralized area in the new museum. ‘The details of the move
of the First Ladies materials are typical of the care and effort that
was put into the movement of other materials. The most difficult task
was moving the mannequins. Special carrying cases were planned
and executed by associate curator Margaret B. Klapthor and the ex-
hibits staff so that the mannequins could be moved without removing
the dresses. The ingenious cases permitted the dressed mannequin to
be lifted from the old exhibit case directly to the carrying case where
it was carefully screwed to the bottom, and braced at the waist. The
loaded case was then rolled to the loading platform, placed on a truck,
and brought to the new building, where it was unloaded directly into
the exhibition case. Moving the 38 mannequins into the new hall,
which took four people about ten days, was accomplished without any
damage to either the dresses or the mannequins.
Tests were conducted by the division of numismatics in cooperation
with the Bureau of Standards in order to determine metallurgical de-
tails in connection with a platinum 50-cent piece dated 1814, a Russian
3-rouble piece, and two $5 gold pieces issued in 1849 by the Massachu-
setts and California Gold Company. X-ray radiographic and diffrac-
tion techniques were used, and the experiments were continued in the
spectrochemical analysis section of the Bureau of Standards.
Through the cooperation of the Naval Research Laboratory, it was
possible to conduct comparative analyses of an ancient quarter-shekel
in silver, struck during the first year (A.D. 66/67) of the Jewish War
against the Romans, and of a silver shekel struck during the third year
CARE OF COLLECTIONS 67
of the war. The composition of the quarter-shekel was found to be
silver, with 2 to 3 percent copper and approximately 1 percent arsenic,
according to X-ray fluorescence analysis. The shekel was made in-
stead of practically pure silver, with 1 percent copper and no other
elements present. The interpretation of the X-ray diffraction pat-
terns allows some conclusions concerning the manufacture of the
pieces, the quarter-shekel apparently being worked cold, while the
shekel planchet was subject to a long annealing process with very
little, if any, cold work. These analyses are of significance for a better
knowledge of ancient metallurgical and striking techniques, and are
being expanded in our own research laboratory.
Armed Forces History
Extensive progress was made in the restoration, renovation, and re-
arrangement of the collections, and repair of specimens designated for
exhibit in the new museum was completed. Under the direction of
museum specialist Donald E. Kloster, the military reference collec-
tions were moved into the new building.
The Continental gondola Philadelphia was installed on its perma-
nent base, located appropriately adjacent to the halls of ordnance and
underwater exploration. Grapeshot and other small objects were re-
covered from the gunboat’s mud-caked inner bottom during cleaning
operations preparatory to the application of final preservatives. Ex-
hibits specialist Howard P. Hoffman completed an exhaustive survey
of the Philadelphia, preparing detailed plans from which will be con-
structed a rigged model representing this vessel as she appeared at
the battle of Valcour Island. Meanwhile, periodic hygroscopic tests
have been made to insure maintenance of satisfactory humidity condi-
tions in the vicinity of the gunboat.
Museum aides John L. Rawls and Harold W. Ellis continued to or-
ganize by exhibit groups and refurbish specimens and graphic items in
the naval collections pending their installation in the new hall of
armed forces history. Substantial reorganization of the uniform
storage and ship plans archives of the division of naval history was
initiated following movement of the reference collections to new
quarters.
Separation of the underwater collections from those of the division
of naval history was completed, and the new facilities have permit-
ted a more efficient and readily accessible arrangement of the materials.
Preservation of the collection is carried on continuously, the new labo-
ratory permitting a speed-up of these processes. Museum specialist
Alan B. Albright adapted a completely successful routine for the use

of the heavier molecular weights of polyethylene glycol in the preser-
vation of ancient, water-soaked wood, as follows:
After the object has been cleaned and towel-dried, the weight of the specimen
is recorded. At this point, careful measurements of all of the important dimen-
sions are made; to obtain critical measurements when the specimen is of awk-
ward shape and/or precise measurements are difficult, several pins are inserted
deep into the wood and the distance between them is measured. A second
measurement, made when the preservation process is completed, will show any
change. The wood is next submerged in 100 percent ethyl alcohol three or four
times its volume (to prevent evaporation) and left there for at least three days,
after which the wood is dried and reweighed, and the weight recorded. The
above step is repeated several times, using new alcohol, until at least a 15 per-
cent reduction in weight is obtained; a higher percent reduction, if possible, is
desirable. The lowest weight recorded is the base from which wax absorption
is calculated.
Next, a solution of polyethylene glycol 4000 and ethyl alcohol is prepared, in
the ratio of 1:1 by weight, in a container of glass so that the level of the liquid
can easily be seen and recorded. After the solution is thoroughly mixed and
heated to 65°C., the object is placed in it and the container is put in a 65°C.
electric oven. Sometimes it is necessary to submerge the wood with weights;
if so, the weights are placed in an inconspicuous spot, for they often tend to
discolor the wood. As the alcohol in the solution slowly evaporates, the poly-
ethylene glycol content rises and the level of the liquid will show less and less
change. After 20 or 30 days, all the alcohol will have evaporated and the remain-
ing liquid should be 100 percent polyethylene glycol. At this point, several ounces
of the solution are removed and allowed to cool in a shallow dish at room tem-
perature; it should harden within an hour. If it does not, the wax is retested
after a wait of several days. When it tests hard, the process is completed, but as
a safety measure, a further wait of four or five additional days before removing
the wood is advisable. When the object is removed from the solution, it is rinsed
for 2 or 3 seconds in hot water, dried with a paper towel or lint-free cloth, and
weighed. This final weight should represent an increase of at least 20 percent
over the minimum weight recorded earlier. The sample is then placed in a dust-
free area to cool.
Usual precautions against damage from insects, dust, rats, and rust
are taken on a regular schedule.
Investigation and Research
Some of the research projects described below have been undertaken
with the partial support of research grants from such Federal granting
agencies as the National Science Foundation and the Office of Naval
Research. <A detailed listing of these is published in the Report of the
Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution.
MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY
Dr. T. D. Stewart, director of the Museum of Natural History, ac-
companied by exhibits specialist, John C. Widener, went to Mexico
City in mid-December 1963, the former to select examples of prehistoric
filed and inlayed human teeth, and the latter to make moulds thereof.
Mr. Widener will make casts from the moulds for an exhibit in the
planned hall of physical anthropology.
Dr. Stewart, serving as a member of the Committee on Research and
Exploration of the National Geographic Society, inspected the
Wetherill Mesa archeological project in Mesa Verde National Park
in late June, stopping off there on his way back from a second trip to
Mexico City where he attended the 33rd annual meeting of the Ameri-
can Association of Physical Anthropologists.
At various times during the year Dr. I. EK. Wallen, assistant director
for oceanography, visited institutions in Massachusetts, Rhode Island,
New York, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi,
Louisiana, Texas, California, and Hawaii in connection with the
program of the Smithsonian Oceanographic Sorting Center. Dr.
Wallen also prepared several short papers dealing with developments
in oceanography and the role of the Sorting Center.
Dr. H. Adair Fehlmann, supervisor of the Smithsonian Oceano-
graphic Sorting Center, participated in Cruise 4B of the R/V Anton
Bruun, of the International Indian Ocean Expedition, from early
November to mid-December. This trip gave him a useful opportunity
to study curatorial procedures on shipboard and to determine the need
for a trained technician to oversee the handling of biological samples
from the time of collection to the time the specimen cargo is consigned
for shipment to the Sorting Center. Thanks to his recommendations,
future collections should come through more intact and with better
records. Dr. Fehlmann also had an opportunity to observe the tech-
niques and equipment used in handling plankton in the Indian Ocean
Biological Laboratory at Ernakulam, South India.

Anthropology
Chairman Waldo R. Wedel completed a study of the prehistory and
aboriginal ecology of north-central Colorado in continuation of his
researches on the archeology of the Plains. He also continued his
account of the 1961-62 archeological-paleontological site near Little-
ton, Colo. His study of a prehistoric Wyoming bison kill assumed new
interest in hght of recently determined radiocarbon dates which moved
back some 2,000 years the date for the outstanding series of artifacts
collected at the site.
Archeology.—Curator Clifford Evans and research associate Betty
J. Meggers largely completed a major monograph on two phases in
the prehistoric cultural development of coastal Ecuador. Inclusion

phase (Valdivia) at 5150 to 3400 years ago.
Curator Richard B. Woodbury, who joined the division of archeology
December 15, 1963, continued his studies of prehistoric water manage-
ment in arid regions of the southwestern states and in Mexico. In this
connection, he made two field trips to the Tehuacén Valley in southern
Puebla, Mexico, to examine evidences of prehistoric irrigation and
farming techniques. His conclusion that large scale irrigation there
has been carried on for the past 2500 years makes this perhaps the
longest record of irrigation in the New World.
Associate curator Gus Van Beek, in collaboration with Drs. Glen H.
Cole and A. Jamme, completed a preliminary report on an archeo-
logical reconnaissance of Wadi Hadhramaut, South Arabia. Dr. Van
Beek also spent more than a month in an archeological reconnaissance
in Yemen at the invitation of the Yemen government. He discovered
two new paleolithic sites and visited three previously known pre-
Islamic sites.
Museum specialist George Metcalf continued his studies of a large
collection of 11th- and 14th-century archeological artifacts from cen-
tral Nebraska. Radiocarbon dates supplied by the Smithsonian’s car-
bon dating laboratory are adding new significance to the project.
Collaborator C. G. Holland continued to study the prehistory of south-
western Virginia as revealed by data and collections from 161 sites
visited in 1963.
Ttesearch associate Neil M. Judd completed a monograph on archeo-
logical materials from Chaco Canyon, New Mexico. During the sum-
mer of 1963, research associate John M. Campbell carried out an
archeological and ecological survey of the Koyukuk River drainage
in northern Alaska, aided by a grant from the Arctic Institute of
America, and continued preparation of a monograph on Nunamiut
Kiskimo prehistory.

In collaboration with Drs. Evans and Meggers, he has underway a
study of the megalithic structures on the Nan Madol, Ponape, the site
of a joint ethnological-archeological field program last year.
Associate curators Gordon Gibson and Eugene Knez were heavily
involved throughout the year in research directed toward completion
of the exhibit hall on the peoples of Asia and Africa. Dr. Gibson
devoted a substantial part of this time to a search of the literature
on Africa in an effort to identify accurately objects selected for exhibi-
tion. Dr. Knez completed most of the exhibit units on Asiatic cultures
in the hall, which opened informally at the end of the year.
Associate curator William Crocker continued work on the Canela
Indians in northeastern Brazil. He spent two weeks with the tribe
in July 1963, and three months early in 1964. At year’s end he was
again living among the Canelas.
Physical Anthropology.—Curator J. Lawrence Angel completed a
manuscript on the anatomy of the hip joint; another on human skele-
tons associated with extinct animals at the Tranquiliity site in Cali-
fornia; and assembled data for a paper on hyperostosis spongiosa to
be included in a volume on paleopathology. He advanced his long-
term program on the anthropology of chronic disease, involving re-
study of students at Jefferson Medical College who had been studied
72 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
several years ago. Another aspect of this program is on aging,
pathology, and mortality among prehistoric and ancient Greeks,
Eskimos, and U.S. Whites. With his technical assistant Donald
Ortner, Dr. Angel worked out a special blank which will permit rapid
coding of data for computer analysis.
Associate curator Lucile E. Hoyme was in England at the beginning
of the year, studying human skeletal collections and visiting labora-
tories of physical anthropology. Particular attention was given to a
series of 19th-century skeletons of known name, age, and sex at St.
Bride’s Church, Fleet Street, London. In December Dr. Hoyme
received a Ph. D. degree from Oxford University, since which time
she has continued her studies of skeletal variation and participated
in the training of visiting scholars. Because of her radiological skills,
she has been able to contribute to study and identification of anthro-
pological and other materials in and outside the Smithsonian In-
stitution.

Zoology
Chairman Horton H. Hobbs, Jr., studied the freshwater decapod
crustaceans on the island of Dominica, West Indies, as a participant
in the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey of that island.
He has continued his investigations of crayfish; he has made substan-
tial progress on a revision of some of the Mexican and Cuban ostra-
cods; and he completed a manuscript on new entocytherids from
Virginia.
Senior scientist Fenner A. Chace, Jr., completed a study on one
species of shrimp in the northeastern Pacific. He also largely com-
INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 15
pleted a report on the decapod crustaceans of St. Helena in the South
Atlantic.
Mammals.—Curator David H. Johnson, although responsible for
the general development of exhibits in the newly opened hall of oste-
ology, found time to study the distribution of hares and certain species
of bats in southeastern Asia, and to continue his general survey of
the mammals of that area.
Direction of the field parties collecting specimens of mammals and
their ectoparasites in Iran and southern Africa occupied much of the
time of associate curator Henry W. Setzer; this field program is car-
ried on with the cooperation of the Army Medical Research and
Development Command. Dr. Setzer joined the African party in
September; from late October to mid-December he directed the field
operations in Iran. He worked in the museum collections identifying
mammals of Kgypt and the Sudan collected by a Naval Research Unit.
Associate curator Charles O. Handley, Jr., continued his mono-
graphic research of the bat genus Artibeus by a study trip to the Uni-
versities of Kansas and New Mexico, and to Texas AGM University.
In newly opened hall of osteology, differences in skeletal structures and
postures of man and manlike apes are related to their specialized ways
of life.
76 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
At the First International Symposium on Cetacean Research he pre-
sented a paper embodying some of his research toward a monograph
on the pigmy sperm whales. From January to March he collected
mammals, especially bats, in the high mountain region of Darién,
Panama, at the boundary with Colombia. Among the many valuable
collections were two species of bats new to Panama, as well as rare
marsupials, shrews, and rodents.
Research associate Robert A. Traub of the University of Maryland
School of Medicine collected vertebrates and their ectoparasites in
Pakistan in continuation of his studies of rickettsial infections.
Birds.—The Pacific Ocean Biological Survey Program, under the
direction of curator Philip S. Humphrey, has increased greatly in
scope since its inception in October 1962. It is chiefly concerned with
the distribution, migrations, and ecology of central Pacific sea birds.
Collaborative relationships have been developed with the U.S. Bureau
of Commercial Fisheries, the Bernice P. Bishop Museum, the State
of Hawaii Division of Fish and Game, and others. Many members
of the field staff in this program are graduate students gathering
data for doctoral dissertations.
The Rockefeller Foundation provided support for a field study en-
abling Dr. Humphrey to work with the Belém Virus Laboratory,
Fundacao Servico Especial de Satide Publica, and the Museu Para-
ense “Emilio Goeldi,” Belém, Brazil. This cooperative field study
deals with the relationship of birds and arthropod-borne virus dis-
eases. Dr. Humphrey continued his studies of plumage succession in
birds and on the distribution, ecology, and classification of Patagonian
and Brazilian birds.
Associate curator George E. Watson completed his dissertation on
the ecology and evolution of passerine birds on the islands of the
Aegean Sea, and received from Yale University a Ph. D. degree in
June. He was on loan to the Office of the Secretary of Defense as
official United States observer on the Chilean-Antarctic Commission
Expedition, 1963-64. His main purpose on the expedition was to
gather specimens and to make photographs for use in preparing an
identification guide to Antarctic birds. He visited Nelson, Robert,
Greenwich, and Deception Islands in the South Shetland group, and
localities on the Antarctic Peninsula and near Anvers Island. The
last two weeks of December were spent in the forested lake region
of Llanquihue Province, Chile, and he collected specimens farther
south, near Punta Arenas and on Navarino Island.
Associate curator Richard L. Zusi, who joined the staff September 3,
1963, undertook research on the collections of the Museum of Zoology,
University of Michigan, in November and consulted with Dr. R. W.
Storer concerning their joint research project on the myology of

grebes. From January to April, Dr. Zusi was in Dominica as a par-
ticipant in the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey of
that island.
Professor D. S. Rabor of Silliman University, Philippine Islands,
was appointed honorary research associate in September 1963. Prof.
Rabor is continuing research on the ornithology of the Philippine
Islands. Dr. Robert W. Ficken of the University of Maryland, also
a new honorary research associate, is engaged in extensive field and
laboratory research on the behavior of wood warblers.
In continuation of his field work on the bird life of the Isthmus of
Panama, research associate Alexander Wetmore concentrated his
efforts during January through March in Darién Province, mainly in
the heavy rain forest adjacent to the Colombian boundary. The re-
sults were most successful, for specimens were obtained and observa-
tions made on species that have been little known in the Republic, and
several new records of South American birds not previously known
from Panama were established.
Research associate Herbert G. Deignan studied at the Museum from
mid-January to late April, concentrating his efforts on the NAMRU
collections of birds from Formosa and specimens collected in Viet
Nam and Cambodia by Bernard Feinstein, former museum specialist
in the division.
78 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
Research associate Herbert Friedmann continued his work on brood
parasitism and completed a manuscript dealing with evolutionary
trends in the avian genus Clamator.
Reptiles and amphibians.—With the collaboration of Dr. C. J.
Goin, work on the bulletin on Colombian frogs by curator Doris M.
Cochran has progressed rapidly and should be completed during the
next fiscal year.
Fishes.—Curator Leonard P. Schultz has continued his studies of
the frogfishes and is actively engaged in the direction of a research
program on sharks. Mrs. Marilyn H. Malin, research assistant, is
maintaining an up-to-date documented file of shark attacks through-
out the world, a project partially supported by the Office of Naval
Research. Dr. Schultz’s manuscript, “The Family Sternoptychidae,”
is being published by the Sears Foundation in volume 4 of “Fishes of
the Western North Atlantic.”
Associate curator Robert H. Gibbs, Jr., has continued his research
on the comparative anatomy and systematics of tunas and of the family
Scombridae, on the systematic and ecology of stomiatoid fishes, the
systematics of the western Atlantic flying fishes, the distribution of
surface fishes from the vicinity of the Gulf Stream, and the systematics
of the subgenus Cyprinella of Notropis. During the past year, Dr.
Gibbs participated in Cruise 3 of the International Indian Ocean
Expedition and studied in laboratories in Europe and Asia from
August to December. Purpose of the cruise was to sample deep-sea
ichthyofauna of the western Indian Ocean and to relate the distribu-
tions of species and biomass to the physiochemical and biological prop-
erties of the water masses sampled in a north-south transect.
Associate curator Ernest A. Lachner participated in Cruise 4B of
the R/V Anton Bruun, purpose of which was to evaluate the relative
distribution and abundance of benthic organisms inhabiting the con-
tinental shelf and upper slope of the Arabian Sea. Enroute to the
Indian Ocean and return, Dr. Lachner examined specimens and ar-
ranged for the loan and exchange of collections in Europe, Israel,
India, Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, and at Stanford University,
California. While in Australia, Dr. Lachner revised his manuscripts
on the Gobiidae and Eleotridae and also expanded his study of the
diskfishes. In cooperation with Mr. Robert Jenkins, graduate student,
Cornell University, Dr. Lachner has undertaken a study of the system-
atics of the American barbeled minnows. They visited the Virginia
Polytechnic Institute in March and prepared more than 5,000 speci-
mens of fishes for exchange with the U.S. National Museum.
Associate curator Victor G. Springer has expanded his studies on
sharks, completing revisions of three genera. During the year, he
visited Stanford University and the British and Paris Museums where
INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH. 79
he studied blennioid fish types and other specimens, bringing close to
completion a revision of the genus Hntomacrodus. He has begun an
osteological study of blennioid fishes and has accumulated data and
material for revisions of several genera.
Associate curator William R. Taylor continued his study of the
families Ariidae and Aspredinidae for the publication, “Fishes of the
Western North Atlantic,” and of the genus Votwrus. He has developed
new techniques in the preparation of specimens for osteological study
that involve the use of solutions of the enzyme trypsin buffered with
sodium borate. This treatment, which removes the muscle tissue, has
proved to be effective in making both preserved and fresh specimens
translucent—the connective tissue, cartilage, bones, viscera, and major
nerves remaining.
Associate curator Stanley H. Weitzman completed a study of two
genera of Asiatic minnows, three manuscripts dealing with South
American catfishes, and a study of the osteology and relationships
of the characid subfamilies Lebiasininae and Erythrininae. He began
esteological studies on the isospondylous oceanic fishes of two other
families of fishes (Astronesthidae and Gonostomatidae).

Kurope, America, or Africa. When completed, this critical revision
of carcharhinid sharks will be the first ever attempted.
Marine Invertebrates.—Curator Donald F. Squires continued his
investigations on southern ocean corals. Considerable progress has
been made in this study, supported by the National Science Founda-
tion, and facilitated by the assistance of Mr. Ian W. Keyes, senior
paleontological technician, New Zealand Geological Survey, who
worked as research assistant to Dr. Squires during the year. Much of
the preliminary compilation of data for a study of the evolution and
INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 81
distribution of New Zealand Tertiary and modern corals has been com-
pleted. In joint authorship, they have finished a review of the corals
of the New Zealand shelf. During the year, a study of the biomechan-
ics of the scleractinian coral J/anicina areolata was completed, as were
several other studies of fossil and Recent corals. Continued progress
was made on the monographic studies of the deep-water corals of the
family Micrabaciidae and on the complex group of species comprising
the “lacerate Flabellum.” From December to February, Dr. Squires
was a participant on the New Zealand Oceanographic Institute cruise
“Macquarie Gap” which made geological and biological studies in the
area of the Campbell Plateau and the Subantarctic Islands of New
Zealand. Visits were also made during the year to the Museum of
Comparative Zoology and the American Museum of Natural History
where types were examined and from which specimens of deep-water
corals were obtained for further study.
Associate curator Thomas EK. Bowman completed an account of an
arostrate population of the planktonic calanoid copepod Acartia lillje-
borgii, from St. Lucia, West Indies. He described a new genus and
species of cirolanid isopod from Madison Cave, Va., the first troglodytic
cirolanid to be found in the United States outside of Texas; completed
the description of a new anthurid isopod from the Caguanes Caves of
Cuba; and described a new mysid crustacean, abundant in Lake Pont-
chartrain, La. With L. J. Lancaster, he prepared a description of a
bloom of the planktonic blue-green alga Skujaella, from the Tonga
Islands. Work was begun on an account of pelagic amphipods of the
family Hyperiidae from the northeastern Pacific.
Associate curator Charles EK. Cutress, Jr., continued his studies of
several families of anemones. During most of April and May, he
collected marine materials in Hawaii and coastal California, for docu-
menting future exhibits in the museum. He was accompanied by
Mr. Kjell Sandved who acted as official photographer. Following
this trip, Mr. Cutress visited the Friday Harbor Laboratory of the
University of Washington where he engaged in studies to clarify the
taxonomy of the swimming anemones Stomphia.
Associate curator Raymond B. Manning, who had joined the staff of
the division in June 1963, in September studied stomatopod crustacean
specimens in the American Museum of Natural History, the Vanderbilt
Marine Museum on Long Island, the Museum of Comparative Zoology,
the Yale Peabody Museum, and the Academy of Natural Sciences of
Philadelphia. In May 1964, Dr. Manning joined a research team from
the Institute of Marine Science, University of Miami, for a 20-day
offshore scientific cruise in the Gulf of Guinea. Following the cruise
he spent several days collecting inshore marine invertebrates near
Dakar, Senegal, before visiting natural history museums in Paris,
82 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
Leiden, and London to study types of stomatopod crustaceans. During
the year, Dr. Manning finished most of a manuscript revising the
stomatopods of the western Atlantic, collaborated with L. B. Holthuis
of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, in Leiden, on a contri-
bution on the stomatopods for the “Treatise of Invertebrate Paleontol-
ogy,’ and completed two additional manuscripts dealing with these
animals.
Associate curator Marian H. Pettibone carried on preliminary work
with a large collection of polychaete worms from the Canadian Arctic,
collected by E. H. Grainger. She continued her long-range study of
the polychaete worms from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the Chesapeake
Bay, completed a revision of the polychaete family Pilargidae, includ-
ing a description of three new species from Virginia, and conducted
further work on the Paraonidae, including the preparation of descrip-
tions of two new species from Virginia and Florida.
Museum specialist Henry B. Roberts continued his research on
Recent and fossil crabs. In addition to studying a new species of crab
from the Miocene of Virginia, he completed a description of a new
genus of Cretaceous crab, and has compiled a checklist and bibliog-
raphy of the Pleistocene decapods of the Atlantic and Gulf Coastal
Plain.
Research associate Waldo L. Schmitt continued his studies on the
American commensal crabs, family Pinnotheridae, and completed the
revision and updating of a popular account of the “Crustaceans” pre-
pared several decades ago for the original Smithsonian Scientific
Series. As an associate editor for biology for the Antarctic Research
Series, sponsored by the American Geophysical Union, he has been
encouraging systematists to undertake monographic reports to be
followed by handbooks dealing with the invertebrate marine fauna of
Antarctica.
David L. Pawson joined the staff as associate curator of marine
invertebrates May 20, 1964. His field of special interest is echino-
derms, in particular the echinoids and holothuroids of the sub-
Antarctic.
Mollusks.—Curator Harald A. Rehder continued work on a study
of the marine mollusks of Polynesia. He sorted and arranged the
material he gathered in Tahiti last year, identified and studied speci-
mens from Tonga and Hawaii, and initiated a bibliography of Poly-
hesian marine malacolegy. Notable progress was made on his mono-
graph of the Harpidae and on a study of certain species of the family
Volutidae.
Associate curator Joseph P. E. Morrison has continued his research
of the brackish water mollusks of New Caledonia, studying collections
of the family Melampidae in the Academy of Natural Sciences of

on the brackish water mollusks of the Gulf States was continued, and
he completed a manuscript describing new species of the families
Hydrobidae, Pyramidellidae, and Mactridae, from Louisiana.
Associate curator Joseph Rosewater spent three months as a partici-
pant in the International Indian Ocean Expedition Auxiliary Cruise
“A” aboard the R/V Ze Vega. A large collection of mollusks was
made from the shores of western Malaysia and Thailand and from
the Mentawai Islands southwest of Sumatra, Indonesia. A brief visit
was also made to the British Museum (Natural History) where he
studied types of the family Littormidae. He is continuing studies of
Indo-Pacific mollusks, especially the families Littorinidae and Tri-
dacnidae; a monograph of the latter is nearly complete. A taxonomic
study of the subfamily Periplomatinae has also been initiated.

Entomology
On July 1, 1963, the division of insects was separated from the de-
partment of zoology and became the department of entomology. The
five divisions in the department are: Neuropteroids, Lepidoptera, Cole-
optera, Myriapoda and Arachnida, and Hemiptera.
Chairman J. F. Gates Clarke conducted intensive field studies of
Microlepidoptera on the island of Rapa in French Polynesia from
September 1 to December 15. In addition to providing a basis for
a better understanding of Micronesian Microlepidoptera, it was hoped
that the collections would indicate substantial relationship to these
insects in New Zealand, southern South America, and South Africa.
The food plants of more than half of the approximately 75 species
collected were determined, and Mrs. Clarke reared in the field 760
specimens, of which the immature stages were preserved for study.
Dr. Clarke continued his studies of several genera and families of
Neotropical Microlepidoptera and preparation has continued of ma-
terials which will be used for critical studies of Micronesian Lepi-
doptera—a long-range project.
Lepidoptera.—Associate curator Donald R. Davis continued his
studies of the Western Hemisphere bagworms (Psychidae) ; his re-
vision of the group was published. Dr. Davis has also completed
a revision, employing statistical analyses, of the Yucca moths (Pro-
doxidae) of the Western Hemisphere. During July and August he,
with Dr. Duckworth, engaged in field research on the latter group.
In preparation for revisionary studies of two insect families, Dr.
Davis studied the collection at the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh,
and the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia.
86 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
Associate curator W. Donald Duckworth advanced toward his goal
of a world monograph of the family Stenomidae with the publica-
tion of one paper on a new Brazilian moth species and the preparation
of three other papers. In the Neotropical area alone are more than
1100 species of this large family whose taxonomy, evolution, and geo-
eraphic affinities interest Dr. Duckworth. In the course of his studies
of the family with respect to these subjects, types from Vienna and
Munich, as well as many others which are more accessible, are being
or have been examined; field study was undertaken jointly with Dr.
Davis to northeastern Mexico, where important distributional data
were gathered; and in April and May Stenomidae were studied and
collected in the Panama Canal Zone.
William D. Field, associate curator, continued his revision of the
butterfly genus Vanessa and of the lycaenid genus Calycopis. In July
he gathered significant distributional data and specimens in the moun-
tains of New England.
Coleoptera.—Curator O. L. Cartwright was in London at the end
of the year to study type specimens at the British Museum (Natural
History) in connection with his continuing research on the scarab
beetles of the Bahamas and of Micronesia.
Water beetles of the Neotropics continue as associate curator Paul J.
Spangler’s special interest. In July and August he spent seven weeks
in Mexico and the Southwestern States collecting valuable materials
for his studies. In the area of Mexico where the Nearctic and Neo-
tropical faunas are contiguous and intermingled, most collections are
useful for evaluating the effects of this overlapping; it is significant
to note that here Dr. Spangler recorded six genera for the first time
for Mexico and at least twenty species new to science. Previously un-
known data with respect to the immature forms of most species col-
lected were obtained, and many individuals of the rare semiaquatic
beetle family Georyssidae were taken. He has also continued his
research on the adult and immature stages of the water beetles of
Puerto Rico and with Mr. Hugh Leech, California Academy of Sci-
ences, he is engaged in a joint revision of the genus Hydrochara. Dr.
Spangler also contributed significantly to the collections by his use
of a battery of Berlese Funnels, which permit the operator to collect
minute insects from decaying leaves. More than 38,000 insects were
obtained by use of this apparatus by Dr. Spangler and in the Protura
alone, the national collections were nearly tripled during the past year.
Myriapoda and Arachnida.—Curator Ralph E. Crabill, Jr., con-
centrated most of his attention on a general revision of the order
Geophilomorpha, his study of the chilopod faunae of New Zealand
and Australia has progressed, and he is presently reviewing generic
and familial delimitations, which is possible only after thorough study
INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH. 87
of type species. To accomplish this end he has visited insect collections
at Harvard University, in Munich, and in London.
Neuropteroids.—The caddis flies (Trichoptera) continued to at-
tract the research attention of associate curator Oliver S. Flint, Jr.,
and he published or completed several papers on Nearctic members
of the group. Dr. Flint has begun to devote increasingly large parts
of his research to the Neotropical Trichoptera and two papers on
species of this region were published or completed this year. At the
beginning of the year Dr. Flint collected and studied in the field on
Jamaica, Dominica, St. Lucia, and Grenada; the first collections of
Trichoptera in the Lesser Antilles resulted from this trip. From April
through June he spent in field studies on Dominica as a participant
in the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey of that island.

Botany
Chairman Jason R. Swallen continued his investigations of the
grasses of southern Brazil, and published two papers, the first on the
Gramineae, in “Vegetation and Flora of the Sonoran Desert,” by
Forrest Shreve and Ira L. Wiggins, and the second on new species of
Digitaria and Trichachne. In September and October he visited South
Africa at the invitation of the National Botanic Gardens of South
Africa for the Golden Jubilee Celebration of the Gardens. The cele-
bration included over a month’s tour of South Africa, and afforded
an excellent opportunity for selective collecting to obtain a number of
species new to the U.S. National Herbarium.
Phanerogams.—Curator Lyman B. Smith continued his studies in
the Bromeliaceae and in the flora of Brazil. In collaboration with
The George Washington University, he supervised the completion of
a master’s thesis on the Apocynaceae of Burma by Ma Mya Bwin anda
doctoral thesis on Z/ex in North America and the Guayana Highland
by Gabriel Edwin; both papers were based largely on material in the
National Herbarium.
Associate curator Velva E. Rudd continued her work on the papilio-
noid legumes of Mexico, bringing the manuscript of part I to comple-
tion. Dr. Rudd also continued her research on the myrmecophilous
acacias of Mexico and Central America and on the Leguminosae of the
Yucatan Peninsula, and began monographic studies on the tribe
Dalbergieae. In connection with her studies in the Leguminosae, she

visited the herbarium of the Instituto de Biologia in Mexico City, and
in September attended the Second Mexican Botanical Congress in
San Luis Potosi.
Associate curator John J. Wurdack continued his review of neo-
tropical Melastomataceae, with special emphasis on collections from
southern Ecuador and northern Peru. In connection with this work
and with his studies on the flora of the Guayana Highland, Dr.
Wurdack visited the New York Botanical Garden in June and Novem-
ber. Recently he undertook the preparation of the Melastomataceae
for the “Flora de Venezuela,” a project involving over 700 species.
Associate curator Stanwyn G. Shetler continued his biosystematic
and monographic studies of North American Campanula, with special
emphasis on the Harebell Complex (C. rotundifolia and related spe-
cies). Also continuing were floristic and phytogeographic studies of
the Alaskan flora, with emphasis on the Seward Peninsula, the south
slope of the Brooks Range, and the Pribilof Islands. Between June
17 and August 31 he spent six weeks collecting plants in the Brooks
Range, Alaska.
Dr. Wallace R. Ernst joined the staff July 29, 1963, as associate cura-
tor of phanerogams. During the years he completed a manuscript on
the genus /’schscholzia in the South Coast Ranges of California, and
with Dr. H. J. Thompson of the University of California at Los An-
geles, one on the pollination patterns and the taxonomy of the genus
Eucnide. Dr. Ernst began a research project with Dr. A. C. Smith
toward a flora of Fiji with studies of the Araliaceae and Guttiferae.
In August he attended the AIBS meetings at Amherst, Mass., where
his joint paper with Dr. H. J. Thompson won an award in taxonomy.
On April 1, Dr. Ernst left for three months to participate in the
Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey of Dominica, British
West Indies.
Associate curator Dan H. Nicolson, who joined the staff January 5,
1964, continued twin projects begun before coming to the Smithsonian,
a preparation of scripts for all genera of Araceae for the “Index
Nominum Genericorum,” and a revision of the genus Ag/laonema
(Araceae). In early May, with Stanwyn Shetler and David Lellin-
ger, he made a reconnaissance visit to the Great Smoky Mountains Na-
tional Park for the Smithsonian exhibits program.
Research associate José Cuatrecasas, concentrated on the prepara-
tion of a revision of Colombian Compositae of some 800 species. Re-
search associate Kittie F, Parker, continued her monographic studies
of several genera of American Compositae.
Grasses.—Associate curator Thomas R. Soderstrom participated in
the New York Botanical Garden expedition to the Wilhelmina Moun-
tains, Surinam, from June te October. Before joining the expedition
INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 91
party, he spent nine days in Trinidad collecting and studying the
grasses of the island. With Dr. Henry Decker, Ohio Wesleyan Uni-
versity, he published a paper on Swadlenia, a new name for the Cali-
fornian genus /’ctosperma, and another on eederochiloa, a new genus
of dioecious grasses from Mexico. His studies of some collections of
British Guiana grasses resulted in the description of six new species,
to be published in the Memoirs of the New York Botanical Garden.
Research associate F. A. McClure, continued his studies relating
to the redefinition of the genera of the Bambusoideae, especially the
bamboos of the Old World. A taxonomic paper, giving subgeneric
status under the genus Zhamnocalamus to two species of hitherto
uncertain taxonomic position is being prepared under joint author-
ship with W. C. Lin of the Taiwan Forestry Research Institute.
Ferns.—Curator C. V. Morton continued his studies of the ferns of
tropical America, especially an account of the genus Blechnum in
Brazil, based mostly on the large collections made by Father Raulino
Reitz in southern Brazil. He continued his study of the photographs
he made of fern types in European herbaria; the work of labeling the
duplicates is being continued under a new grant from the National
Science Foundation. Mr. Morton spent three weeks in July in libra-
ries in London and Paris checking bibliographic information for this
work, and five days in April at Harvard University and the New York
Botanical Garden. Jointly with Mr. Lellinger, he prepared a treat-
ment of the genus Aspleniwm in Venezuela, based largely on the exten-
sive collections assembled from the Guayana Highlands region by the
New York Botanical Garden and the Chicago Natural History Mu-
seum; this work will be pnblished in the Memoirs of the New York
Botanical Garden.
Associate curator David B. Lellinger, who joined the staff August
26, 1963, continued with his revisions of the genera Ji/della and
Cheiloplecton, began a study of Pterozonium, and accumulated ma-
terials for revisions of two groups of species in the genus Checlanthes.
He spent brief periods in research at the herbaria of Duke University,
North Carolina State College, Michigan State University, and the
University of Michigan.
Cryptogams.—Curator Mason E. Hale continued monographic
studies on the lichen genus Parmelia, with special reference to sub-
genus Xanthoparmelia. Elizabeth J. Denison, supported by National
Science Foundation funds, assisted with technical problems from
January to May 1964. Dr. Hale made a five weeks’ trip to the major
European herbaria to examine and to test chemically type specimens
and general herbarium collections. Field studies of populations of
Xanthoparmelia were conducted in Minnesota, New England, and the
92 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL. REPORT, 1964
southern Appalachians. A large manuscript on subgenus Amphi-
gymnia and a summary of subgenus Parmelia are now in press.
Associate curator Harold E. Robinson conducted field exploration
for bryophytes during three months in Dominica as a member of
the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey. He continued
floristic studies of the bryophytes of tropical America, especially
southern Brazil and Venezuela.
Associate curator Paul Conger continued studies on a large collec-
tion of British, Australian, and New Zealand Antarctic diatoms, both
plankton and sediments. He completed a manuscript on a new species
of epibenthic marine diatom from Honolulu harbor, Hawaii.
Associate curator Richard E. Norris, before resigning in August,
completed two cruises on the R/V Anton Bruun in the Indian Ocean
and made a number of collections of marine algae and plankton,
which are now being processed at the Smithsonian Oceanographic
Sorting Center.
Plant Anatomy.—Curator William L. Stern was on leave from the
Smithsonian Institution, having been transferred temporarily to the
International Civil Service so that he could spend a year in the Philip-
pines as a Forestry Officer with the Food and Agriculture Organiza-
tion of the United Nations.
Associate curator Richard H. Eyde completed a comparative ana-
tomical investigation of the flower in Garrya, an American genus of
debated affinities, concluding that the closest allies are the Old World
cornaceous genera Aucuba and Griselinia. He continued research on
the comparative anatomy of fossil and modern members and allies of
the dogwood family, with emphasis on the genera Corokia, Mastixia,
and Alangium.

Paleobiology
A plan to divide the department of geology into two departments,
mineral sciences and paleobiology, was approved on August 20, 1963,
and the reorganization became effective on October 15, 1963. The
diversity of disciplines in the old geology department made the parti-
tion logical and desirable. The purely physical subjects of mineralogy,
petrology, and meteorites are now separated from the biological sub-
jects of paleontology and ecology. The department of mineral sci-
ences consists of three divisions, mineralogy, meteorites, and petrology.

The department of paleobiology consists of four divisions: Inverte-
brate paleontology, vertebrate paleontology, paleobotany, and sedi-
mentology.
Dr. G. A. Cooper, chairman of the department of paleobiology, in
collaboration with R. E. Grant of the U.S. Geological Survey, nearly
completed the manuscript on the Permian brachiopods of the Glass
Mountains, Tex. In March and April Dr. Cooper went to New Mex-
ico with Dr. J. T. Dutre of the Geological Survey, to study local
Devonian materials.
Paleobotany.—Associate curator Francis M. Hueber has continued
his investigations of the Lower Devonian flora of the Gaspé and north-
ern New Brunswick regions of Canada. Preparations of petrifac-
tions collected during August from one locality near Dalhousie, New
Brunswick, have helped clarify certain anatomical] details of a pro-
fern which is being studied cooperatively with Dr. Harlan P. Banks
of Cornell University and with Dr. Suzanne Leclereq of the Univer-
sité de Liege, Belgium. The final details have been obtained for com-
pleting the redescription and reconstruction of Psilophyton princeps
var. ornatum; the results of these findings demonstrate the need for
broad taxonomic changes among the fossil Psilopsida. New re-
ports of genera heretofore known only from European Devonian de-
posits are being established by the continued laboratory investigation
of the material. Excellent preparations of petrified materials have
been made by museum technician James P. Ferrigno. Dr. Hueber’s
studies, in collaboration with Mr. Leeds M. Carluccio and Dr. Har-
lan P. Banks of Cornell University, of fossil plants presently referable
to the genera Archaeopteris and Callixylon are soon to be published.
This investigation has pointed up the need for a revision of the genus
Archaeopteris.
Dr. Walter H. Adey, who specializes in Tertiary and Recent Marine
algae, joined the staff as associate curator of paleobotany on June 30,
1964.
Invertebrate Paleontology.—Curator Richard S. Boardman and
museum specialist George T. Farmer completed their collecting of
the bryozoan fauna of the Middle Ordovician of Oklahoma. Mr.
Farmer is using a part of the fauna for a doctoral dissertation and has
made good progress on its preparation.
Research assistant Dr. John Utgaard is working in cooperation with
Dr. Boardman on a revision of the genera of the Paleozoic Bryozoa.
Two manuscripts have been completed and Dr. Utgaard has made good
progress on the Cyclostomata.
Museum specialist Frederick Collier has completed the tedious prep-
aration, working on his own time for a master’s thesis on the rhombo-
poroid Bryozoa, of some Middle Devonian strata of New York State;
INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 95
and he has started collecting biometrical data for a taxonomic treat-
ment.
Associate curator Porter M. Kier spent June and part of July study-
ing the living habits of echinoids in the Florida Keys. Dr. Ker, ac-
companied by Dr. Norman Sohl of the U.S. Geological Survey, used
scuba diving equipment to observe species distribution relative to bot-
tom conditions and depth. Large collections were made for com-
parative investigations, and individuals were studied both in their
natural environment and in aquaria. Dr. Kier continued these in-
vestigations in the month of April, diving off Dominica as part of
the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey of that island.
Scuba and other diving techniques were employed to make collections
and note environmental relationships of the echinoid populations.
Museum investigations enabled Dr. Kier to complete a major manu-
script on the evolutionary trends in Paleozoic echinoids.
Associate curator Richard Cifelli continued his studies of the dis-
tribution and abundance of Recent planktonic Foraminifera. These
studies are being pursued in relationship to the circulation and general
hydrography of the north Atlantic. In a concurrent investigation,
in the equatorial Atlantic, Dr. Cifelli is making an analysis of sub-
marine cores which is concerned with problems of correlation of the
cores by Foraminifera and paleoclimatic interpretations. In a joint
study with Dr. T. G. Gibson of the U.S. Geological Survey, Dr. Cifelli
is conducting investigations of the stratigraphic succession of Tertiary
planktonic Foraminifera in the coastal plains of eastern United States.
Dr. Cifelli completed two papers now in press, one on planktonic
Foraminifera from the western Atlantic and the other on concentra-
tion techniques of separating shelled organisms from plankton.
Associate curator Erle G. Kauffman has continued investigations of
the evolution and taxonomy of Cretaceous pelecypods in North Amer-
ica, In particular the Inoceraminae and Ostreidae. Dr. Kauffman,
accompanied by Mr. G. R. Paulson, made a two months’ collecting trip
to the mid-continent and eastern Rocky Mountains. More than 25
detailed stratigraphic sections were measured and an estimated 4,000
specimens were collected; these latter will be of great value in distribu-
tional and evolutionary studies, as well as for determining the bio-
stratigraphic utility of the species. Also, studies have been started on
the Cretaceous pelecypods of the Caribbean area. Two weeks in March
were spent with Dr. Norman F. Sohl, collecting at localities in Puerto
Rico. A silicified fauna was collected which contains many new species
apparently endemic to the Caribbean area. A review of the Jurassic
and Cretaceous Ostreidae of Saudi Arabia has been started; the
Pholadomyidae from this fauna are now under study. Dr. Kauffman
completed four manuscripts which have been approved for publication.
96 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
Associate curator Martin A. Buzas joined the staff June 1963. His
research activities involve distributional studies of Recent and late
Tertiary smaller Foraminifera. Dr. Buzas completed manuscripts on
the Foraminifera from a late Pleistocene clay near Waterford, Maine,
and a distributional study of the species of Foraminifera in Long
Island Sound. The New York study included analyses of many en-
vironmental conditions, such as sediment particle size and chemical
properties of the water. His most recent investigation is a canonical
analysis of four species of EVphidium. Eight characters were meas-
ured on series of specimens and the statistics programmed for evalua-
tion by means of a multivariate technique which utilizes a high-speed
electronic computer.
Dr. Richard H. Benson joined the staff as associate curator of in-
vertebrate paleontology on June 30, 1964. His area of specialization
is the Ostracoda of the Tertiary.
Vertebrate Paleontology.—Curator C. L. Gazin completed his
morphologic study of the Early Eocene condylarthran mammal d/enis-
cotherium. This has included a detailed review of nearly the entire
skeleton, which is compared with those of other condylarths and
the hyracoids. The latter were once thought to be fairly closely
related to Meniscotherium, but the resemblances are now regarded as
primarily adaptive. A beginning was also made in study of a fauna
from a new Paleocene horizon in the Evanston formation of south-
western Wyoming, and of a recently prepared endocranial cast of the
Middle Eocene Bridger primate Smilodectes.
In connection with his condylarthran studies, Dr. Gazin visited the
Chicago Natural History Museum in February for further evidence on
the ecology of Aeniscotherium as interpreted from details of associ-
ated biota, and in June again visited Princeton and Yale Universities
and the American Museum to wind up details of the morphologic study,
under funds provided by the National Science Foundation.
Field work by the curator earlier in the year was carried on prin-
cipally in the Middle Eocene Bridger formation of southwestern
Wyoming. Much of the time was devoted to a careful search for
smaller mammals in the upper part of the formation, as exposed in the
upper basin of Sage Creek, but with some attention to the lower levels
in the Grizzly Buttes and to the north of Cedar Mountain. Occasional
trips were made to profitable localities of earlier years in the Paleocene
and Early Eocene of adjacent basins. Franklin L. Pearce, chief of the
laboratory of vertebrate paleontology, assisted him during the early
part of the field season but illness prevented his remaining throughout.
At the close of the year Dr. Gazin and Mr. Pearce departed for field
work in New Mexico and Wyoming.
INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH Q7
During September and October associate curator D. H. Dunkle,
accompanied by museum technician G. B. Sullivan, conducted field
work in northwestern Ohio, the area around Council Bluffs, lowa, and
the Manzano Mountains of central New Mexico. Their collections and
stratigraphic observations will permit important additions to and
revisions of the known paleoichthyological faunas of the Middle De-
vonian silica shale of Ohio and several Late Paleozoic horizons of the
mid-continent and Rocky Mountain regions. The New Mexico occur-
rence investigated is of especial interest ; it is practically the lone source
in North America of a varied marine assemblage of well-preserved
fishes, invertebrates, and plants from the Permo-Carboniferous
interval.
Aided by a study trip to Pittsburgh and Cleveland, excellent prog-
ress was accomplished in the preparation and description for publica-
tion of a new paleoniscoid fish from the Upper Devonian Ohio shales
and of the fishes of the Middle Devonian silica shale.
In September associate curator Nicholas Hotton III left Washington
for field work in Africa. In addition to collecting in the Permo-Tri-
assic beds of the Karroo region in South Africa, which has yielded a
variety of mammal-like reptiles, he has been carrying on during a
greater part of the year a detailed stratigraphic study of the Beaufort
series with a view toward a better understanding of the distribution
and ecology of the forms. At the end of this year he had left Africa
for Europe to study at certain of the leading museums.
Associate curator Clayton E. Ray, who joined the staff on December
18, 1963, has continued his studies, carried on previously at the Univer-
sity of Florida, of fossil and modern terrestrial vertebrates, especially
rodents of the Antillean region. Since his arrival he has completed
reports of a new species of capromyid rodent and an undescribed
mimiature ground sloth, both from a cave in the Dominican Republic.
He also continued his studies, initiated in Florida, of the North Amer-
ican Quaternary fauna, including that of a Blancan fauna from
Florida, the first in eastern United States.
In April, sponsored by the National Science Foundation, Dr. Ray
gave at Shorter College, Rome, Ga., a lecture on Pleistocene animals.
At that time he visited a Pleistocene fossil locality. Near the close
of the year, in the vicinity of Puebla, Mexico, Dr. Ray conducted a
field investigation of Pleistocene occurrences in collaboration with an
NSF-sponsored archeological party from the Peabody Museum in
Cambridge, Mass.
Dr. Remington Kellogg, research associate, continued his studies of
the Tertiary Cetacea and completed a report on the skeleton of one of
the larger Calvert Miocene whalebone whales. Satisfactory progress
98 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964:

Mineral Sciences
Department chairman George Switzer completed the annual review
of the diamond industry and, with Roy S. Clarke, Jr., Helen Worthing,
and John Sinkankas, completed a manuscript on “Fluorine in
Hambergite.”
Associate curator Paul E. Desautels began an investigation of a suite
of rare uranium minerals from a new locality in Mexico, and completed
a study of one of them, sklodowskite, a hydrous magnesium uranyl

silicate. Mr. Desautels addressed mineral societies in Tucson, Phila-
delphia, New York, Baltimore, Toronto, and Washington, D.C.
John S. White, Jr., museum technician, nearly completed a study of
the rare mineral plattnerite, oxide of lead, from several new localities
in Arizona and Mexico.
Associate curator EK. P. Henderson completed two manuscripts—one,
a study of the hexahedrite meteorite group, and the second, a discussion
of the legendary and probably nonexistent Port Orford, Oreg., meteor-
ite. A study of the metallography of the Bogou, Upper Volta, iron
meteorite was also completed.
During the year Mr. Henderson spent four months in the field in
Australia with Dr. Brian Mason of The American Museum of Natural
History, and Dr. R. O. Chalmers of The Australian Museum. Meteor-
ite material was collected from four well-known Australian craters,
Henbury, Boxhole, Wolf Creek, and Dalgaranga. The Dalgety Downs
meteorite was relocated and nearly 500 pounds of material recovered,
and many fine tektite specimens were also collected. Exchanges ar-
ranged during the stay in Australia, and on the return trip through
the Middle East and Europe, have added a number of fine new speci-
mens to the collection.
In November 1963 Mr. Henderson was awarded the degree of Doctor
philosophiae honoris causa by the University of Bern for his many
contributions to the study of meteorites.
Roy 8S. Clarke, Jr., continued his studies of chemical methods of
meteorite analysis; minor element analyses of several iron meteorites
are in progress. Investigation of an iron oxide corrosion product of a
metal blade from the Freer Gallery collection, conducted in cooperation
with R. J. Gettens and E. W. FitzHugh, proved that this ancient blade
was fabricated from meteoritic iron. A complete chemical analysis of
the mineral phosphophyllite from Bolivia was made.
Tektite studies, particularly relating to the Martha’s Vineyard and
Georgia tektites, are continuing. Mr. Clarke attended the Second
Tnternational Symposium on Tektites in Pittsburgh in September, and
participated in the organization of a fruitful meeting of tektite re-
search workers and representatives of the scientific staff of the Corning
Glass Works held in Corning, New York in February. Henderson
and Clarke visited the Georgia tektite area with Mr. Thomas E. Allen
of Atlanta in March.
In June 1964 a grant was received from the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration to conduct studies of constituents, composi-
tions, and textures of meteorites, and their bearing on theoretical
problems.

MUSEUM OF HISTORY AND TECHNOLOGY
Science and Technology
Chairman Robert P. Multhauf was principally occupied with a
study of the history of early chemistry, which was nearly complete
at year’s end. During the year Dr. Multhauf presented a paper on
the use of calculating machines in scientific work, and another on
early theories of the nature of metals.
Physical Sciences.—Curator Walter F. Cannon devoted his re-
search time to a continuation of his studies of English scientists of
the early 19th century. He prepared two papers for publication
on the characteristics of physical science in the 19th century. A paper
on the scientific work of William Whewell was prepared at the request
of the editor of the Notes and Records of the Royal Society and will
be published in that journal.
Uta C. Merzbach, associate curator, continued her investigations
of the history of modern algebra, and began a detailed research proj-
ect on the mathematics of Leibniz.
Mechanical and Civil Engineering.—Curator Silvio A. Bedini
toured technical museums and other institutions of learning in Great
3ritain and continental European countries and presented lectures
on 17th-century optical instrument makers at the Astrophysical Ob-
INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 101
servatory at Arcetri and at the Instituto Nazionale della Ottica of
the University of Florence. He was invited to present a paper on
Giovanni de’Dondi at the University of Padua in October for the
sexcentenary of the astrarium. He has completed a book entitled
“Mechanical Universe” on the de’Dondi astrarium in collaboration
with Francis R. Maddison of the Museum of the History of Science
at Oxford University. This work, which is scheduled for publication
during the present year, is the product of his research in north Italian
archives during his tour of museums and will present a considerable
amount of hitherto unstudied documentary material.
During the past year Mr. Bedini also completed three more articles
about antique scientific instruments in the national collections, one of
which has already been published; a comprehensive investigation of
the invention of the orrery, including study of an unrecorded instru-
ment recently discovered in an American collection; an article on
the evolution of science museums for the special museum issue of
Technology and Culture; and a study of early Italian science museums
for publication in Cultura e Scuola in Rome. In addition to these,
Mr. Bedini has completed an article on Galileo’s preoccupation with
the measurement of time, which will form part of the Saggi, the
memorial volume of Galilean studies to be published by the Consiglio
Nazionale delle Ricerche in Rome; a comparative study of Galileo’s
instruments for the memorial volume of Galilean studies to be pub-
lished by Notre Dame University; and a paper about the craftsmen

tions, made by J. R. Brown of Providence, R.!., who in 1850 made the
first such device known to have been used in the United States.
who produced the instruments used by Galileo, which will be pre-
sented at the Symposium Internationale di Storia, in Florence and
Pisa in September 1964. In progress is a biography on the Della
Volpaia, a family of engravers, sculptors, clock-makers, engineers and
instrument-makers which flourished in Florence during the 15th and
16th centuries and which made a considerable contribution to science,
technology, and the arts.
In the section of light machinery and horology, associate curator
Edwin A. Battison completed the first draft of a translation of Jacques
Besson’s Theatrum Instrumentarum et Machinarum from the 16th-
century French with the assistance of summer intern Bruce H. White.
Since this work has not been previously available in English, this
translation will be a significant contribution to the history of technol-
ogy. Names of American patentees appearing on subject lists for a
period of three years of the mid-19th century were added to an alpha-
betical card file in progress, making a total of six years now completed.
Associate curator Robert M. Vogel in the section of heavy machinery
and civil engineering, during the course of a study trip to the Midwest,
conducted research on the development of the uniflow steam engine in
the United States. In addition to interviewing numerous individuals
INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 103
who were instrumental in the introduction of the uniflow concept into
American engineering practice prior to World War I, Mr. Vogel made
a thorough search of the archives of the Skinner Engine Company,
the leading manufacturer of this type of engine.
Trans portation.—Three trips to Spain were made by curator How-
ard I. Chapelle in connection with the reconstruction of Columbus’
Santa Maria by a Barcelona shipyard for the New York World’s
Fair. At the same time he was able to accomplish research on Span-
ish shipbuilding of the 18th and early 19th centuries, especially with
respect to American colonial shipbuilding and Spanish influence on
their design. Mr. Chapelle has also completed about half the antici-
pated work on his long-range project regarding the search for speed
under sail.
John H. White, Jr., associate curator, has concentrated on his proj-
ect entitled “Representative Locomotives”; about 200 illustrations are
now completed and about a third of the text in first draft.
Museum specialist Donald Berkebile has nearly completed his re-
search on the famous Liberty Truck of World War I.
Electricity.—Curator Bernard S. Finn continued his research into
the history of thermoelectricity, with a view to publishing a source
book of the important historical documents in the field. Information
compiled from trips to Kuropean museums last year and to American
museums this year will be used in an article characterizing the modern
science museum.
Over the past two years a large-scale effort has been made to visit
colleges and universities to find objects for the collections. Toward
this end Dr. Finn made a week’s tour through South Carolina and
Georgia, and Mr. Sivowitch had a fruitful two days in the Philadel-
phia area. Partly as a result of this type of direct searching, the di-
vision has received objects over the past year from fourteen of these
institutions. Important large collections of material have been re-
ceived from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Columbia
University.
Medical Sciences.—Dr. Sami Hamarneh revised a Bibliography of
Medicine and Pharmacy in Medieval Islam for publication in mid-
1964. He also studied the life and literary contributions of the 9th
century physician-philosopher Yaqub al-Kindi. Dr. Hamarneh vis-
ited the University of Wisconsin to inspect and select pharmaceutical
objects of historical significance.

112 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964
including a reproduction of a contemporary watercolor sketch of the
battle of Valcour Island by a British 18th-century combat artist. Re-
search was also launched on the memorandum book of Samuel Nutt,
a British seaman who kept a most informative journal while serving
on board HMS America, 1779-1783.
Following publication of his paper “The German Naval Critique of
the U-Boat Campaign, 1915-1918,” which was awarded the Moncado
Prize of the American Military Institute, Dr. Lundeberg initiated a
study of the impact of technology upon the naval strategy of World
War I, with particular emphasis on undersea warfare.
Dr. Lundeberg has continued work on a catalog of the growing
national collection of models of historic United States warships; much
of the information currently is being utilized for completion of the
models themselves. Extensive research was carried out in connection
with plans for models of the frigate Constitution and the torpedo boat
Cushing, while a check list of selected ship plans in the divisional
archives has been completed and will be shortly available to the public.
During the year, associate curator Melvin H. Jackson completed
the first draft of his maritime history of the Caribbean, 1793-1800,
based partly on archival materials in Jamaica and Curacao. Further
research is planned in France, The Netherlands, Spain and Great
Britain. Closely allied to these studies is his search for objects and
documents illustrative of the history of privateering. With the co-
operation of the curator of transportation, Howard I. Chapelle, re-
vised plans of the schooner Prince de Neufchatel have been com-
pleted preparatory to the construction of a model of that handsome
privateer.
The history of the United States Revenue Marine continued as a
major element of Dr. Jackson’s research program. A reassessment
of the battle of Negro Head in 1814, involving the Revenue cutter
Eagle, H. M. Sloop Dispatch and H. M. Frigate Varcissus, was pub-
lished in the spring of 1964. Wide-ranging research was conducted
into the history of the celebrated Revenue cutter Bear in preparation
for construction of a model representing that vessel as she appeared
between 1880 and 1900.
In the field of naval ordnance, Dr. Jackson undertook the com-
pletion of a manuscript by the late Colonel Carey Tucker of Maryland
on the history of muzzle-loading ordnance in the United States. Ad-
ditional research was carried out in connection with construction of
models of the 8-inch barbette battery of the USS A¢/anta, the 10-inch
turret of the USS J/aine and a Terrier missile launcher, while data
were collected also for graphic representation of a 16-inch naval
turret.
Taking-off the hull lines of Continental gondola Philadelphia, in order
to make a lines drawing, is a step in the process of preserving this
famous vessel and building a model of it.
Exhibits specialist Howard P. Hoffman of the divison of naval his-
tory conducted an exhaustive survey of the Continental gondola Phila-
delphia, preparing detailed plans of the vessel and her armament as
the basis for construction of a large-scale model. He also conducted
extended research on David Bushnell’s submarine 7urt/e, draughting
plans for a longitudinal-section model of that early submersible.
Alan B. Albright, museum specialist, completed a paper on the
preservation of organic materials recovered from underwater sites;
publication is expected during the year.
In July and August, Chairman Peterson and museum specialist
Albright investigated two underwater sites in Bermuda through the
cooperation of Mr. E. B. Tucker and the Government of Bermuda.
During the diving season of 1964, a full-scale expedition will be
mounted to be financed by two generous supporters of the underwater
program. This expedition will investigate thoroughly the early Span-
ish wreck site which was given a preliminary investigation last year.
This site, believed to date from the 1560’s contains large portions of
the ship’s bottom timbers. Special measuring devices designed by
Howard P. Hoffman and James Mahoney of the museum staff, modi-
fied and built by William Sonntag of the buildings management de-
partment, are expected to give accurate measurements of these early
timber remains. The resulting drawings should be of importance
to historians of naval architecture.
